Is My inverter working properly?

I have a 2022 390 MP with the super soar package.
I bought unit used and was never really given any instruction on OEM solar package.
So I'm sort of figuring it out on my own.
I have Super Solar Package which includes:320W solar panel 40 amp charge controller and 2000 watt inverter.
I believe during my initial test the inverter powered most of my outlets.
However now when I turn on inverter. It seems only fridge is being powered.
Where do I begin? I have installed a Progressive industries 50 amp surge suppressor since my initial trial run.
Is this causing an issue somehow?
Looking for ideas and suggestions where to begin troubleshooting.

I don't think that is the Super Solar Package. I think you have the default solar setup, which is there to charge batttery...to power inverter...to run ONLY the frig. Guessing your frig on the 2022 model, is just 120v. (not gas or only 12v) Is that correct?

Hello Jim,
My fridge is Norcold LP/electric. It is not 12 volt or residential (110 Volt only).
One reason I'm pretty sure Inverter powers more than fridge is fridge is lp/electric and I believe it powered outlet during my test.
I haven't contacted Alliance yet but I guess that is my next step

Well as it turns out my 2000 watt inverter is working as designed.
For the record the inverter powers, Living room TV outlet, Bedroom TV and night stand outlets, Island GFCI outlet, Sofa Outlet and fridge outlet
I am disappointed that the microwave outlet is NOT powered, but I am glad to know everything is working as designed.
Hopefully this info will be beneficial to others on this forum.
I also want to commend Alliance for their prompt response to my inquiry.

What was the issue? Was the GFI plug tripped?

Actually there was no true issue. I tried to use the microwave via the inverter and found out it would not work via inverter.
This led to me wanting to know, "Was the Microwave supposed to be on the inverter circuit?"
I found out the microwave was not wired into the inverter circuit.
Although I think the microwave should be on the inverter circuit, the fact that it isn't is a disappointment but it is something I can correct.
At the end of the day I am happy my inverter is working as designed, which was really what I was trying to figure out.
What circuits are on the 2000 watt OEM inverter.
