Sorry to hear that coach issues have impacted your trip. But thanks for posting, it makes us owners of vintage iron feel like we are not alone in the adventure.
I don’t know how comfortable you are with electricity, but you could use wire splices, not wire nuts, and temporarily wire around the inverter. You would only have the fridge, oven, and other things on the circuits while plugged in or gennie running but it’s an option. In older coaches, Newell added a plug by the inverter to bypass the internal ATS if such a thing were to happen.
