Not all ambulances have an inverter, and they vary WIDELY on mounting location. It's something that has to be ordered with it depending what/where the unit will be used for. Ex....Most private (for profit) ambulance companies will have them because of the need to power ventilators, IV pumps, monitor battery chargers, etc for extended transport times. Most volunteer outfits do not run those types of calls, and do not need that additional equipment for emergency runs that usually terminate at a fairly close hospital. Also, thery're fairly expensive. So if it was in working order, it was probably removed before the ambulance was junked.
Having said that (sorry), the majority of them are either behind one of the front seats, under the airway seat (captains chair directly behind the drivers seat), or mounted behind the cabinetry down beside the airway seat. It should be easy to tell if it had one, because there will be a bunch of wires in a bundle with a battery cable.
Remember I said MOST. Good luck !!!!!!!
