After connecting to shore power, the fridge only works on 110v , no way to use gas, and the fridge light is off, so I assume it's a fuse.
The fridge is Electolux RM 5401 with no fancy electronics and is is a 1996.
I also have a hard time removing the outside vent cover, which way should I pull once the 2 plastic screws are in the open position ?

Thanks

Most likely the fuse is on or nearby the circuit board in the back of the fridge. You may have to remove the cover from the circuit board to access the fuse.

This is assuming you have checked the main 12V feed fuse in your main fuse panel and it is OK.

If you can't find it on the back of the fridge under a plastic cover, check near your converter. I found a dedicated in line fuse for my jacks and the fridge coming off the converter. Good luck!
