Refrigerator not working

Went out to stock up camper for next weekends camping trip and refrigerator is hot inside.
We keep the 2014 CC 29RE plugged up to shore power in backyard. It was working a couple of weeks ago when we went out and swapped all the winter stuff. Turned everything off at breaker and back on. Should I be hearing a fan? And if so where is it located? Top section outside is putting of heat.

Dometic Fridge
I have checked all the fuses and switched it gas to see if it will cool that way.

Need more info on the fridge. Make and model number will help. Did you check that the thermocouple is on the fins in the fridge section? It might have been knocked off when you were taking some things out and others back in.

Troubleshooting completed
Bypassed control module and put direct AC current to heating element. Had ice cubes the next morning.
Checked ohms on Thermistor to verify correct function. Got zero ohms.
Ordered new Thermistor yesterday.

Glad you found the problem. It's great that you came back with the solution.
Bet you didn't think you could be helpful to others before you joined this forum.

Since the control module was bypassed not just the thermistor, please update when it has been replaced. Hopefully thats all it needed. Fingers Crossed

Fridge is cool as a cucumber.
Thermistor was the problem. Ready to head out minus the dreaded cooler!
