no reason really, the way I have it is fine and i may end up swiching fridges or something down the line. I may post pics later

The wiring in this link worked perfect for my model. Thanks!

I know that there are other posts about this, but they don't seem to follow with the schematic of my controller. I just want to use an extention cord, not splice into the compressor relay. I have a TS-13010 that looks like this: 7-Power Supply 8-Power Supply 9-NC (means normally closed i...

Why do we have to fight? Just scrub it with ketchup and rinse it off with vinegar!

Ketchup works wonders and is on hand and cheap. Try it cause it works really well.
