Hey guys,

I almost finished my 8" collar on my old 1997 Frigidaire (ffc05m5cw2) chest freezer. I totally forgot the freezer lid has a cord going to the main wiring harness for an alarm. When I place my 8" collar on the freezer, the wiring for the alarm/lid isn't long enough, ugh.

I'm by no means an electrician, but can make my way around safely with instruction. What would this best way to remove the wiring and how? Cap it off? Any help is appreciated, I have 20 gallons in kegs at room temperature aging but would like to get them in this freezer within a few days.

Thanks! Justin
 
The lid wiring has a red, white, black and green wire going to the main wiring by the compressor.
