Is it true that the only 120v outlet that is powered by the inverter is located in the cabinet located behind the BM pro panel?

Go to the Thor owner’s resource page and download your electrical diagrams. Might be a faster answer to your question.
 
There is no tv there may be a cabinet that has ports for a tv if that's what you're referring to then yes I have checked it that's the only one I've found
 
In most rigs without a residential refrigerator the only outlet(s) powered with the inverter are the ones for the television(s).

Disclaimer: I don’t know about your specific model and this info is based on other Thor models.
 
I have an 18g as well. I also think its just that one outlet behind the BMpro. Stupid huh?

Quickest way to find out, is go around to all others and test with this (inverter on of course)- also make sure that outlet, if GFCI, is not tripped, as it would control all downline ones, as is usually the case.
The tester has a GFCI tester as well. You should have this in your tool kit anyway.

Also as an owner, log into the Thor owners resource pages- then you can download a full set of schematics, including plumbing and electrical and see what is GFCI protected, and what other pathways are open to the inverter/ panel wiring.

No, I don't think so. You may be confusing this with the actual inverter switch. The outlet inside the cabinet is not inverter driven as the Microwave plugs in there and for some reason Thor doesn't want to use the inverter for the Microwave.

There are two inverter driven outlets. One is next to the kitchen sink, the second under the couch behind the driver's seat. They are double outlets, for a total of four inverter-powered sockets.
