Thanks everyone for the thoughts!
Valhalla: I did this as best as possible; only the 12v and the coil 12v out are measureable when the fridge is assembled and installed. There's 12v going in to the switch, but no 12v coming out to the coil (mode set to 12v and tstat maxed out). I checked continuity across the switch when it was out and there was no issue. When it's assembled, meter probes can't reach the switch or the t-stat :(
D-d and Doug; I had noticed that fuse in a couple wiring diagrams, though the diagram on the fridge itself does not show a fuse. The only place I can't see is the wire inside the cable loom to the heat stack, but I've checked continuity over both wires with a meter and they're fine. I think I can safely rule out a fuse.
Neschultz; there's 12v at all time. My domestic battery is actually completely isolated from my vehicle battery; the alternator does not charge the domestic battery.
