Fridge

Not specifically a Syncro topic except the fridge is in a Syncro.
Any suggestions on how to diagnose a 15 year old Waeco 12 -240v fridge that stopped working in between use ?
Still running but not cooling , no battery issues etc.

Mark,  can be out of refrigerant (gas) , has developed a leak or the compressor has a failed valve. To check open up, find where the system was charged, normally a tube  at the suction side of the compressor . The tube is welded closed. Cut the tube with side cutters, if no gas comes out recharge here . If gas comes out, your pump has had better days .
Can't be fixed.
