That's when the lights came on and the plate started getting cold. The temp in the chest dropped 5 degrees in a half hour -- which leads me to believe the compressor works. The control, however, has a dial that won't turn, stuck on the highest setting, 7. (Personally, I prefer my knobs go to 11 -- and extra points to anyone who gets that reference.) If it's really working again, I may just leave everything as-is instead of shelling out big bucks for a new controller for a 27 year-old fridge. In your case, to test it, look at the wiring diagram and see if you can skip the controller and apply power directly to the compressor. One manual I found talked about a jumper wire. Hope you get cool results. Good luck. All the best, Edd ----------------------------------- Edd M.

Is there a way to test to determine if the current controller is bad? My controller is a 102N3030 12V DC with a 15 amp fuse. I believe the digital control that you found on line will work in my boat, but I hate to spend $295 to find out it is not the controller but really the compressor or something else. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

The deal is that it's not so much the manufacturer, but the compressor. These Nova Kools have a Danfoss. These 4-pin controllers work with them. It got the lead from the folks at Sure Marine. They could not help due to the age of our units. But they did some research and came up with these. Guess I caught em on a good day! Hi Tom, The information David provided you is not completely accurate. The 4-pin Danfoss was used by a bunch of companies. it is definitely obsolete, but if you do a Google search, it appears that a few people still have stock. http://www.outbackmarine.com.au/null~1325<http://www.outbackmarine.com.au/null%7E1325> http://www.penguinfrigo.co.uk/shop/product/436/control-module-12v-dc4-pinfor-danfoss-bd3-earlier-compressors/ Kind regards, Todd Glenn *Sure Marine Service Inc.* (206) 784-9903 (800) 562-7797 Fax (206) 784-0506 t...@suremarine.com<mailto:t...@suremarine.com> They're the best.
