I just received a thermostat I ordered from http://www.zymico.com/controls/
I plugged it in set temp and went bed I woke up this morning and checked to see if my fridge was holding at 65F only to find this thermostat was dead! It wont power up at all! I plugged the fridge into the same outlet and it came right on so I emailed this company & will keep you up to date on how they handle this.

I called a local AC place United Refrigeration and the part number for the thermostat is A419abc1 it cost $54.00 FYI here is the wiring info http://www.zymico.com/thermostat.shtml

Im brewing this weekend so I bought another thermostat and cord at the a/c store wired it up and hooking it up tonight its another $60 to the cause but there will be beer (carmel cream ale) fermenting at 65F in my fridge this weekend!

Wired up my new a419 & connected it and this morning my fridge was right at 65F you cant stop a man on a mission!!!!

This seller never would call or email me back so I am filing a complaint with Visa.
I wouldn't recommend buying from this website
 
I have one just like it that I got from Williams Brewing and it has jumpers on the inside that have to be set for either heating or cooling, if yours has them you may want to check and see if that is the problem.

my thermostat has 3 termanals which are color coded yellow/blue and red anyonr know what this means
Nope! It's probably not an industry standard. Thermostats are just switches. Do some continuity tests on it both above and below the trigger temperature to see which terminals are which.
