Refrigerator Not Getting Power
I have a 2005 fleetwood prowler regal and my refrigerator Dometic RM2652 works on propane but I have no shore power to it or my microwave. It’s plugged into to the shore power. I’ve plugged a fan into the outlet where the fridg plugs in and no power. All breakers and fuses are good. What can I check next.

Dont waste your time searching for GFCIs, they are not on Microwave or fridge circuits.
What shore power do you have 30 amp of 50 amp ?
What kind of outlet are you using 15, 30 or 50 amp ?

Look at your inverter for popped CBs.

Power to Fridge
Is there an inverter on board? Have you checked for a tripped GFCI as both are kitchen appliances.

Since RVs bounce down the road, there is a good chance the power wire has worked loose from a connection.
First DISCONNECT THE SHORE POWER.
Then, at the power distribution panel, check to see if the black wire is still firmly connected to the circuit breaker. It's a good idea to verify all the breakers - screw should tightened to about 15 inch pounds - firmly tight but don't crank on it.
Next check for the matching white wire connected to the common bus bar.
If those are tight, take apart the outlet that the closer of the fridge/ microwave and verify that the wires are also tight. These may be push to connect receptacles. If they are, it isn't a bad idea to replace with a common 15/20 amp receptacle from your favorite big box hardware store. If you replace you may also need to convert to a common outlet box. Depending on your situation, you could need either a new work or old work box. Look for a shallow version if space is tight.

He said he plugged in a fan to the refer outlet and the fan worked so it sounds like there is power to the outlet.
You may have a loss of 12 VDC to the refer control board. The refer needs 12 VDC to operate regardless of the power or fuel source. Without 12 VDC it will not operate on shore power, propane or generator. You seem to have 120 VAC, now you need to look for 12 VDC

I had the same issue with the same refer , Dometic 2652 .
Found the 110v plug behind the refer was vibrating out of the receptacle . Not enough to notice but enough to break contact .
When plugged all the way in it felt loose in the receptacle .
I bent the prongs on the plug slightly outward and plugged back into the receptacle . It fit nice and snug and no further issues .
Might not be the cause of your issue , but might be worth looking into .

hohenwald48. Please reread his statement. He said it won't work. I would agree with Sailor Sam. Check all the connections. Many times they chain the connections from one to the other using those push in connectors. They easily corroded and many tines come loose.

Not sure if this is appropriate for your reefer, but many years ago I had a old Dometic that acted the same way. A kindly tech at the local RV dealer told me to look for a 5 or 10 A fuse inside the box on the outer side of the reefer. I replaced this fuse, and all was good again.
