Agreed, check the Thermocoupler.
Look at your Manual for the Refrigerator. Mine states that you should check the Flame to make sure that it is Blue, Yellow indicates a Weak Flame and may lead to the Thermocoupler not getting Hot enough. You could make sure that the Thermocoupler is close enough to the Flame and then Tap on the Burner to help clean it temporarily.
Another way to check the Thermocoupler is to short out the wires, not sure if the Dometic uses this type or not. Like stated above the Thermocoupler is typically a potential issue since it is always in the flame in order to work.
PS The Thermocoupler also ensures that the Flame is present in order to allow the Fuel to Flow.
