Thank you for the reply and explanation!
Yes, the RV was in storage, in sweltering 90+ degrees in Virginia with the fridge doors left open.
I turned off the fridge for a few minutes (probably unnecessary) then turned it on again and put all my food from the cooler into the fridge. Eventually, the fridge and freezer got cold.
After putting in all my food from the cooler (and a couple of frozen blue-ice packs) I think the fridge also does better when there's "mass" inside the fridge versus trying to get it cold with just hot empty air inside.
