Default AC/DC Frig Switch?

Two seasons ago I purchased a 1990 280 SeaRay Sundancer. When powered by DC the frig does not work. SeaRay informed me that only AC/DC frigs were installed. It looks like the original one and has the on/off switch in rear of inside upper corner. The control panel has on/off A/C breaker. The dash panel has a fuse button with no toggle. Am I missing something?

Thank You, SauSea

I also have a switch on my dash. I think. I'll check the operation this weekend.

I do have a switch on the dash, but I'm not sure it does anything. If I turn on the switch inside the fridge, it's on until I shut off the battery. I'm not sure it is actually switching to A/C when I plug into shore power.

Thank You for the replies. It's possible that the frig has issues, not me. Everything has been tried. Could be it's not wired to the batteries. I'll rename her "COOLER" CRUISER.

My Norcold turns onto AC by the breaker on the main panel.
It turns onto DC with a switch located by the fridge.
