Dometic fridge - orange flashing light

My Dometic fridge has an orange light constantly flashing which I believe to be the compressor. After reading a few threads, people suggested disconnecting the battery, then trying to start it up again but this has not worked after many attempts.

Does anyone else have any suggestions? We are fully charged and have a reading of 14v+ inside so should be no reason.

Any help would be much appreciated.
 
The dometic is exactly the same as my Sanjo.
The orange light is on when the compressor isn't running.
A standard check is to leave the door open for a minute, the blue light comes on as the compressor kicks in when the internal temperature rises a bit.
The top orange/red light is the fault indicator which flashes a particular number of times to let you know what or if a fault exists. The manual toward the back has the fault codes.
Is the lower orange light flashing? Or the top one?
Definitely get yourself a small thermometer to keep an eye on fridge temperatures.
I had a similar issue with my fridge not working, I pulled the fridge out to find an awful connector block had come adrift, new crimped connection, now works fine.
