SOURCE: 5 amp fuse blows when I try to start on AC

Sounds like your heaters are shorted ,  This is best carried out by a fridggy but you can do it yourself with the right tools ,  First of all make sure you turn it off and unplug it completely. take off the back panels and located the tank  with the heaters wrapped around it. disconnect the heaters and remove them and make sure you take note of where each wire came from , ie; tag the wires or write it down, once the heaters and fuse is replaced it should be cool sailing..

SOURCE: My Dometic NDR1062 only runs on gas, its set for auto and has 110

There is a control board and a step down transformer that may be at fault.
These should be located in the lower rear of the unit.

SOURCE: dometic rerigerator won't work on electric keeps

Have you tried locating the connectors on circuit board for the AC (hydro) element and removing them from circuit board and see what happens when you turn it on hydro then? Follow them back from element if necessary. If fuse doesn't pop, then I'd suspect a shorted element and change the heating element. Double check fuse is correct amperage as well. If it's a 3 way fridge, make sure it's the AC element and not the 12 volt you remove.

SOURCE: RM2652 Dometic, blows 15A fuse in about 15 seconds

Sounds like you have a short in your heating element for 120VAC. I'd change it.

SOURCE: I have a Americana RM2652 It works on gas, but not

My guess is that the element is shorted out not much else to go wrong, elements are not that resilient to shocks and bumps.

I have a dometic rm 2852 and it keeps blowing the 10 amp glass fuse, what could be causing this? It will not run on electic.

Electrical short circuit, you just have to find it. Look for pinched, trapped or abraded wires. In an RV, vibration from driving is the issue.

Why does 15 amp 250 volt fuse in my lg refridgerator keep blowing

the 15 amp fuse is blowing because the current draw to run the compressor exceeds 15 amps
that problem could be from a failed start/ run capacitor or a failed compressor motor (I am betting on the capacitor)
the best answer is to get a fridge technician to check it out as the capacitor is a cheap fix while the compressor unit is as costly as a new fridge
