Exclamation trying to bypass the univolt inverter

I am trying to bypass the univolt inverter in my 73 Sovereign but when I disconnect it, the 120v outlets dont work anymore. Is there an easy way to go about doing this. I am only living in the trailer while I build and I don't need the battery back up, so I want to some how shut off the NOISY inverter while still being able to run 120v. Thanks for you help- Chase

If your not going to use any 12 volt lights, then simply unplug the Univolt.

It has nothing to do with any other 120 VAC circuits.

Sounds like perhaps another problem.
