We had a 98 Caribou that we bought new and loved until the Oregon rain got the best of it.
First trip out the furnace did not work, at all. It was the circuit board, which was replaced under warranty. That could be the problem with yours, especially if it does not even "click" to indicate that it's trying to function.
Also had to replace the circuit board for the hot water heater, but that is not your problem since it fires up. Turn on the hot water tap in the sink and see if water comes out. If not, there is no water in the hot water tank.
The fridge would blow out while traveling, especially if the wind was blowing. I just hopped into the camper and checked it whenever we stopped, and turned it back on if needed.
If you do need a new circuit board, I had good luck with those made by Dinosaur Electronics.
