Pinnacle - by-passing the inverter.

I've run into a problem with the inverter on my Pinnacle. I need to by-pass the inverter and plug the residential Samsung refrigerator directly into a 120 outlet. The problem is that, more than likely, the refrigerator is plugged in to an outlet behind it which is impossible for me to get to. Any suggestions will be much appreciated.

If you're plugged into shore power the inverter should go in to bypass mode and not be in the loop. If you need to remove the inverter, you should be able to do some minor wiring and bypass it.

Good to know how to do it if it ever comes up.

There are two romax wires running into the inverter...open the cover and take them out. Connect them with wirenuts.
DISCONNECT ALL POWER TO THE RV!!
DISCONNECT THE BATTERIES!!

Connect the wires inside an electrical box with a cover to be safe.
If you have no electricity knowledge at all don’t do it.
