Just some general questions:
1 - - This is model 3136 3-way correct;2 - - Does the Fridge get good and cold on 120VAC?
If yes, then issue is with propane heat source.
If no, the cooling gas "ammonia" may have leaked out.
3 - - Has the trailer been stable and fairly level for the past 3-4- days?
Extreme trailer left/right or tongue up/down can disrupt the ammonia distribution.
4 - - Have you observed the Propane Flame . . . does it change size as the flame control knob is
changed from high to low, low to high (remember to press knob in while changing flame setting.
If:
2 = Yes, OK on 120VAC
3 = No, just normal storage or driving.
4 = Yes, seems to be getting more propane at high setting
Then, you might try cleaning the burner assembly, Service Manual reference:

Did you manage to replacle the orifice burner ? if so did you have to pull the fridge?
from the orifice shape it looks impossible to remove due to the metal collar with the round hole for a set screw.... (see red arrow)
