What I was trying to say was it needs a fuse to make it work, and it would be a good idea to make sure there is 12 volts at the fuse holder as a fuse on a dead wire would be pointless.

Looks like an old three way mechanical refer. No voltage to operate.
LP system, Follow instructions on plate. It appears to have a Piezo lighter system. 12 volts DC, Not good to operate on this. Uses up battereies ina hurry.
120 volt, Need to get 120 volts to cord.
I would not try to fix this old unit. You may find one about the same size at an RV salvage yard.
Sounds like it has beeen chopped up to prevent use as it could create real problems.
Make and Model maybe inside the interior of the fridge on plate on door frame.

Dometic sales corp usa

gas is on on atm and back tubes are getting warm .
so we wait and see .
120v seems to need some work at the breaker box , I wasn't interested in using 120v but I might as well have a look while I can.
Which I have contacted a buddy who works with 120v.(not doing that my self lol

Google is my friend , I took the model number and found the install guide .
http://gasrefrigeration.net/dom_techdata/24_77SM.PDF
on page 40 sub 24 the diagram shows the 12v terminal going to battery
which it isn't , not that i'm concerned , I just like to know how things work and make sure everything works.

The manual is a good find for your refer. It should help you get it going. Looks like several areas contain specific information on it and good troubleshooting.
I see it has a "flint" igntion rather than a Peizo.

So you got the gas lit, that's great. Like you said now you just have to wait and see. It will take at least 5 hours before you know. Gas Electric fridges are slow. Espically the older ones.

I checked it before left for work this morning , cooler inside not alot ,
The "cooling" plate in the upper in side is cool to touch ,
And the lower section of pipes in the back warm to touch but the upper section isnt warm yet ,
Blockage maybe ? Or normal ?
The 120v side of things guess needs work , my guy said it looks like they bypassed the breaker

Blockage!
Small refer, you could take it out and turn it over a few times. If it has hardened then you could be out of luck. Older models need to be level. If ran out of level blockage can be problem to clear.
