Dometic fridge not working

It’s been a couple of years since I used my 2008 Outfitter Apex 8. I’m cleaning it up to start using it again. Everything works except the Dometic fridge. It doesn’t come on at all. Its been wired where it only operates on 12 volts. I’ve check and I have 12 volts to the board. Where do I go from here. Thanks

It should start with RM and then four digits. Believe you posted serial number.

If I could figure how to post a pic I’d post the label on the fridge.

I really dislike the 'Amish' style of fridge. Always a PITA with something. I pulled mine last year and replaced it with a compressor fridge. Issues ended right there.

I’ll see if I can figure out where to check the element and look for a fuse. Like I said though I have 12 volts going into the board now.
