Default refrigerator

Hi Everyone,
Just got home from a couple of days on Cape Cod. Had a great time except that my refrigerator stopped working yesterday.
I have a 2007 Gulfstream BTCrusier with an electric/gas Dometic refridg.
For no apparent reason the control panel stopped working, no indicator lights on whether I switched from gas or electric. Plenty of propane on board and the electric connection was fine with everything else.
Manual says there are fuses in the back of the refer. Access from the outside through a panel.
Questions???
The access panel is held on by two small rectangular clips?? that do not "pop" out easily. Did not want to use pliers and muscel till I asked if there is some "trick" to popping the panel off. There are 3 slots the size of a screwdriver blade under it but did not want to pry on the fiberglass.
Secondly, anyone had this problem? do you think it could be a fuse to the control panel?
and, cannot find the circuit breaker to the refer in the fuse box. Thought I read somewhere that it is behind the refer?
Any help is appreciated.
Don

The clips rotate 90 degrees to release. I am having the same problem but have no solution yet. Good Luck!

Got into the access at the back of the refer by turning the clips 90 degrees. Opened the electronics box and found the two fuses noted in the manual. They are cartridge type, both looked brand new.
Reviewed all of the Gulfstream literature I have looking for the breaker and fuse in the house. Still can not find it inthe main panel where everything is labeled. Will let you know if I make any progress. Going to call the repair shop tomorrow.

I think there might be another fuse housed in the RV itself that could be blown. Find your centrally located fuse box, and check to see if it is blown. Other than that, I am wondering if you might need to replace. Appliances get a lot of wear and tear on the road!

The main electric panel should be near the floor, not too far from your shore power hook up.
