SOLUTION: I realized that recently while 'winterizing' much of the RV, and having put insulation batts behind each outside compartment door, I had also had the 'brilliant' idea of also putting insulation batts behind the fridge's outside vent cover.
I now realize that this is a mistake, as RV fridge's need air flow...

when we removed the insulation yesterday, the fridge today is suddenly COOLING just as it should be....solved.
I guess it's fortunate it was apparently switched to electric only & didn't try to cool on the gas, could've been quite a fire.
