I'll have to look at the schedule and post it on here. I'll try to do that tomorrow evening...got plans tonight.

Crap, crap, crap. I was bending the line and heard a *pop* and then fssss. Looked, around, I've got nothing to repair a broken line like this. Closed the door, opened the window, turned on the fan. That's a $40 craigslist lesson.

For anyone who is interested, I have my timer set to the following sequence:

ON - 1am
OFF - 3am
ON - 5am
OFF - 8am
ON - 10am
OFF - 1pm
ON - 3pm
OFF - 6pm
ON - 8pm
OFF - 10pm

Your timing sequence may vary. I live in Tennessee where it gets real freakin' hot in the summer time, and again, my fridge is in the garage with no A/C.

I'm sure once winter sets in, I'll have to adjust accordingly.

I am sure the timer method works for you but if you have a desire to get the fridge temperature controlled, buy a temperature controller, well worth it IMO. I set mine to 45 degrees and let it do its thing.

Just going to throw my experience in. I can fit a pin lock keg in there and a tank with no modification. I just leave my perlick laying on top of the keg inside, not much into the tower look. I am having an issue at the moment because i DID try to remove the freezer shelf by bending it and I moved the thermostat sensor out of it's original spot... not it just runs all the time and it's chilling at like 30F

I have since sold my Sanyo but it is a fine fridge IF you put a temp controller on it. I highly recommend the ebay Aquarium temperature controller build since it doesn't cost much and it gives you the option to heat and cool if you ever need it.

@ryansweeney I just successfully bent the freezer try down on my 4433 and have been testing temperature. It seems I created on large freezer. the thermostat is at 3 and temp is 20 degrees. did you have any temperature issues?

magnj · 02-10-2012, 12:46 PM

+1 to that. I moved the sensor and forgot where our was. Now it hovers at 32 on the warmest setting.

*BUMP*

I have one of these now and am just getting it set up. I'm not installing a tower yet so I won't be bending the freezer compartment (just yet) but I do want to drill a hole to run my gas line in from the outside. Does anybody know where I can find the wiring diagram so I can tell where it's safe to drill?
I'm thinking that one of the sides or the back wall look ideal but obviously don't want to drill through anything.

Google searches turn up the user manual but that's just about how to turn the dial on the temp control.

Plug it in and let it run for a few days. Then feel around on the outside housing. Where it's warm is the general area where the lines run. You can try the corn starch and water trick to get a more precise location if needed.
