Key to whether the problem is cabling or the inverter, is if it tries to come online, but drops off, as mine did?
There is a load sensing option within the control panel menu. I had to disable it (per Xantrex) when my inverter would not stay on for more than a couple of seconds after a total, extended power loss. The microwave display is insufficient draw to satisfy that function. The control panel, as you likely know, al lows On/Off control of the inverter. Check it is set to On and didn't revert of Off with the power loss.
Alternatively to the menu load check item, I guess, you could plug something into an inverter powered outlet, adding more current draw for the inverter's startup check.
My coach's inverter fuse is large and on the inside wall of the battery compartment. I'm fairly sure it's not in the battery isolation switch circuit (solar charging). The big spark from reconnecting the cables is normal and did not 'toast' the fuse.
Multiple resets (the button on the Xantrex) had not solved the issue for me, nor did the factory-specified cold reset.
