The fridge should not have any connection to the fuse area. It goes directly to the terminal strip in the battery compartment.

I studied the wiring diagrams and the only power supply to the 12 volt circuits comes from the master switch. The charger/converter only connects to 12 volts at the circuit breaker in the battery...

I think he meant to say the white wire to the other switch is on one of the top terminals. Red with tracer to center terminals are okay. Red/black wires to red on the bottom terminals are okay.

That would be a good idea along with checking with an ammeter before you start tearing things apart. New batteries can go bad and if it was drained to zero it could be ruined.
