Hi BGR Yes been there done that. It might be your thermostat on electric playing up. 1 First turn electic thermostat switch slowly and see if you can hear it click you may have to do this several times backward & forward. If you can hear it means it maybe working. 2 Check if the power point is on and power cord is in correctly. 3 With everything on power remove rear cover and see if heater box or pipe coming out of the top is getting hot this will came take up to 5 min to heat up. If not you may need a multi meter to see if the heater element is ok & check therostat (MAKE SURE POWER IS OFF & CORD IS REMOVED) Use ohms to check opperation of thermostat & then measure across the two wire on the element. You may require to remove fridge to do this. 4 If it all seems to hard take it to refridge man he will help you out. It may be time for a good service.
Fellow campers had similar with the 12volt side not working.
It was the thermostate control unit, slowly turn it to off & back on & again listen for the click of the switch, I had to do this several times before it started to work, this was a very old unit.
The campers were able to stay another week so they were very happy.

We had exactly the same thing happen to ours a couple of years ago and it turned out to be the element. Replacing the element was way outside our expertise, we had to take it to a dometic authorised repairer. On the plus side for us the fridge was still under warranty.
Hi BRG, we had the same problem a few months ago and it turned out that the 240 volt heater had failed. got a new one and put it in, problem solved. we did however have to get a extra vent put in the side of the fridge so I could get to it but that will give me access next time I need to get to the fridge. The extra vent also has improved the working of the Fridge. Hope that helps
regards
Brian
