Get a voltmeter / multimeter or test light and follow the current path.
That way there won't be a thread filled with guesses.

I get a good chuckle every time GoWesty's 'fridge eliminator kit' is
mentioned. There are X cubic feet of space in a Vanagon. Removing/moving
the fridge to another spot has merely moved the space it used before.
One could argue that a storage box placed instead of the new fridge
would be far cheaper and just as useful.
