Refrigerator quit working

On our return trip home between Kingman Az and Beatty Nv our frige quit working. We lived out of the ice chest for a week until we got back home. I took the trailer into a shop where we have had refrigerator work done before. It would not cool. The service man took it out of the trailer after working and testing it. Before he started replacing parts he plugged it in and surprise, it worked. It ran for several days. He then hooked it up to propane and it worked again. He dosen't want to put it back in the trailer until he finds out what the problem was.

Question: Has anyone had this happen to them? If so, what was the solution.

We had an issue after a storm a number of years ago. I went out and took out the fuses and reinstalled and it worked fine after that. Still going years later.

Thanks for the ideas. I have done the following:
checked all the fuses,
checked the breaker,
the check light has never come on,
I pushed the buttons a lot before taking it to the shop,
the burner would work fine and never kicked off.

I will pick it up on Friday and hope for the best. The teck is going to cut the coil and flush it out incase there might be some debri from the factory in the tubes.
