Few other questions.
3 switches on the side of the fridge: top one turns on the pump, lower left- light outside. Can't find what the lower right does.
There is a switch by the bathroom's door as well that I have no clue about its function.
Few lights don't work inside the trailer. I removed the light fixtures and confirmed that no electricity is coming to them. Is there a fuse box somewhere for those 12v lights?

I do not have your exact fridge but can try and help. Can you give us a model/ serial number of the fridge? We can look up. Some of the older ones where all gas controls (no DC power) and then some started having DC controls as part of the fridge system.
Point is the DC part. You seem to be having 12 VDC issues with lights not working. If the frdige needs 12 volts to run part of the control board you might not have power to run it.
Give us the model/serial number and we can start digging into that unless someone has one like your and knows the in's and out's of it.
Now the no lights, yes there are 12 volt fuses somewhere. Again do not know your exact conveter, however a place to start is behind the cover on the Magnatek converter. The old converters used small glass tube fuses. Unplug the 120 VAC shore power and open that cover. You should find the 12 volt power source and a trail to the fuse block. Pic's for us helps too to see and tell you where to hunt.
Question:
Does anything 12 volts DC work in the camper? If so what?
Do you have a battery installed?
Are you on 120 VAC shore power or just battery? Does it make any difference on battery or 120 VAC for things working in the camper?
Some of the real old converters has a switch function to either run off the battery or change the battery. And sme you had to flip the switch to get then to work the way you wanted. I do not know if your is like this, just throwing it out there. My son had one in an real old pop up like that.
Hope this helps
John
