Everchill 12v fridge help

[Sharkbyte77]

Need help wiring fridge back up. Think I am missing the harness from the compressor. Any help would be appreciated.

Maybe a little background on how you got to this state would be helpful? Did you disassemble the refrigerator and misplace a part? Or disassemble and just forget how it went together?

Or maybe you took out an absorption refrigerator and are replacing it with a compressor type--and the new one came from a salvage yard or someplace?

You posted great pictures, but were a little ambiguous about what you are missing. There are three elements related to the compressor:

1. The Inverter Printed Circuit Board Assembly (PCBA), seven wires
2. Four wire harness to the Inverter PCBA
   • Two wires from the Main PCBA
   • Two wires from the Power Terminal Block (+ wire has fuse)
3. Three wire harness from the Inverter PCBA, wires labelled U, V, and W.

The Power Terminal Block appears in the first two pictures. It has three screws labelled + (White wire), - (Blue wire), and GND (two yellow wires).

I am trying to distinguish the board you are showing in pictures. It has around 13 connections, and doesn't seem to have a display on it.

The Main PCBA has up to 29 Connections.
The Display PCBA has 8 connections.
The Inverter PCBA has four connections.

My guess is that:
The Main PCBA is in pictures 2-5.
The Display PCBA is not in the pictures.
The Inverter PCBA is missing or not in the pictures. Once you have it, it's a simple matter of plugging it in as shown in the excellent first picture.
