    Burt, hopefully your hired hand will eventually get the idea with the electricity... Good on ya to try him out at least!



    A question, though....what about the refrigerant side? No, calm down, I'm not going safety or license nazi here!

    Just if there is low refrigerant level in the thing and it doesn't cool too good. I would be hesitant to do much until I knew it would cool off properly. I guess I'm kinda answering my own question here----just jumper the compressor and see if it (a) runs, and (b) puts out cold, before doing any other work on the thing.

    At $30 for a fridge, you can't spend a heck of a lot of time on it but it sure beats the scrap price for the same thing.

    Jon.
