So about a year ago i picked up a trojan tricabin with a few projects that hadn't been completed.
One of wich, the electrics to the fridge were all disconnected. I have hot wired the compressor and. Pump on to test the fridge and everything works well, but now i need to wire it up for full time use. I am new to water cooled fridge systems and could use some advice on how to wire up the controller, and some info on how the water pump is suposed to run. Should it run full time round the clock? Or only come one with the compressor cycles?
Have you seen this fridge? Please help.

I would wire it so it only comes on when the compressor is on . I also recc the A/C be wired that way if it has not been all ready

Thanks, i did wire the a/c that way, but i was a little more familiar with that system. Do you have a recommendation on a circulation pump for the fridge?
