Thanks for your help. As it turns out, I don’t have to cut it at all. I had thought the probe ran down and outside the fridge (for some dumb reason) but it’s only attached to the back of the coil panel. It can be removed in one piece. This is probably what others have done.
Understood, thanks. But I suppose my question is more of 'is it ok to remove?'. If I'm bypassing it permanently, can I just take it out? Or will it affect some other component? Thanks for your help!
I hope I'm not too late to the party on this one. I'm planning to follow this thread with my new kegerator build and wanted to know what everyone ended up doing with the white thermostat tube coming out of the back of the original thermostat? One comment says to snip it, another says to leave it...
