my caravan fridge will not freeze or cool?

the gas flame stays on - I have had the burner section off and cleaned - checked the jet - and all is ok, the flame looks good and blue - I have tried standing the fridge upside down for 2r hrs - rolled it - reconected and tried again - but still no joy - is it possible the the internal coolant could be degraded - its 15 yrs old. It does cool down when I tried it on 240v - tho not very good - It is an electrolux wheel-arch type - and in very tidy condition, but wht wont it freeze? cany anybody help? please - Tom

Thanks bb for that - do you know if that sort of a task is within the capabilities of our local caravan service place - or, as an after thought - can the coolant system be taken off and given a good shake ? Tom

try again but when you turn it upright leave for 24hrs for gas to settle before connecting. if still not working and you know gas is working ok it may need amonia mix replacement or there is a leak of coolant fluid somewhere.
