Inverter location?

2016 Alante 26. Where is the inverter located??
On the road. Generator working fine but not getting electricity. Research tells us it could be inverter fuse or blown transfer switch.
Help?
Thanks!!

We are not sure where yours is located but ours has a GFCI button on the front side that will trip on occasion and a simple push of the Reset is all it needs.

Check the breaker on the front of the generator...

If your not getting power from geny Inverter has nothing to do with it. Probably bad transfer switch then. Did he reset geny breaker or just check it?

Flipped gen breaker on and off several times. There’s also a breaker on the inverter box, but we don’t know where to find short of deconstructing the coach.

But breaker on inverter only controls the TV outlets, it's only a 1,000 watt. If you don't have any 110 either geny is not generating or transfer switch is bad.

Inverter is usually close to breaker panel.

Inverter is under the bed. However, as others said if you're not getting 110v while running generator, it's not the inverter. Inverter puts out 110v only to the outlets for the TV's and received its power from the house batteries, not the generator

Look in the small panel box under the frame, just behind the Generator- I had the same issue and it was a burnt wire from trying to run both ACs in 110 heat

I don't think the 2016 26X has an inverter unless you ordered it as an option, my 2016 26AY did not have one stock, I had to add it. I installed it in the pass through compartment against the right hand wall as that is adjacent to the battery compartment, and you want to keep your cables as short as possible.
