   First, you say lights are on. What setting do you have for the temperature (the bars on the right side)? What is the ambient temperature? Do you have a thermometer inside the refrigerator that is verifying that it is not cooling? Have you removed the outside covers to make sure it is plugged in? If so, can you remove the plug and verify that the outlet has power (plug in a lamp or use a meter if you have one)? Is the ground fault outlet tripped? Is the circuit breaker in the power panel tripped?
Hopefully, you will figure it out. If none of the above suggestions work, and if it also does not cool with propane, then you would do well to get it to your dealer's service department.

	We are finally getting our 179 ready for our first trip later this month. Had to do some unexpected repairs because a large pine branch fell on the pod while we were away, so our pristine trailer is no longer so. May have a little bit of water damage, but nothing serious - fingers crossed. After plugging in the power and starting the fridge on 120v according to the manual, we have no coldness after 24 hours. All the lights are on but nothing is happening. Any suggestions - am I missing something? Just switched to gas and I am waiting to see if that works. I hope it is something simple and someone out there can set me straight. Thanks in advance.
