Or follow the wires to the battery back to the charger? Or the big 12v feeder to the 12v fuse panel? Those are often relatively close to the converter/charger.
The breaker that says living room as well as converter doesn't mean the converter is out there. Just that the same wire runs to both. They could be 30 ft apart.
It was common back then to tuck the converter under something and out of the way. On my 1988 trailer it was under the fridge and way at the back.

The 120 goes from the breaker box and down through floor.
I tried using my stud finder's hot wire detector to trace it with all the other breakers off and loos it about a foot from panel, and track the receptical wires till it seemed like it went in to floor.
FWIW ive been an industrial electrican for 40+ years and never had something that should be this simple stump me before.
I'm sure its simple I just cant see "woods for the forest"
