Refrigerator not working

Hi team!

I've just bought a second hand '94 Ford Econoline conversion. It's converted by a company called Honorbuilt. It's a It's a Dometic RM2310 3-way system, but it's currently only working when running when plugged directly into an AC power outlet.

Is there some way you think I could fix it myself? Are there common issues with running RV refrigerators off propane and/or the 12V battery?

Thank you so much!

    If propane does not light, the burner and igniter may need to be cleaned out, and vehicle must be close to level. When plugged in, the tube where the gas flame would go, the electric heater goes in that tube and should get warm. Look for any yellow coloured stains around the pipes which indicates the refrigerant has leaked out. Good luck.
