I am not an electrical expert at all and am hoping that somebody here can help me out.
I am wanting to install a small fan inside of my keezer to help with airflow and to help the dehumidifiers do their work better. My lid to the chest freezer originally had a light that would come on when lifting the lid. Now that the light switch is always on the "on" position I want to use that wiring to power a biscuit fan on the inside. I had to cut the external wiring due to the collar that I installed on the chest freezer, so I was planning to use that to power the fan.
I have Kennmore 8.8 cu. ft. chest freezer that I bought at Sears that I converted to my keezer.
My questions are as follows:
What kind of fan do I need to buy, I'm assuming AC, but what voltage?
What wires am I splicing from what used to go to the light to the fan?
I can take a picture of the electrical diagram that is on the back of the freezer and the color of the wires that I can use to power the fan if that would help anybody. I'd experiment myself, but I don't want to shock myself or blow out the compressor or anything else with the freezer since it is essentially brand new.
Thanks for all your guys help with my brewing history.
