If the machine is wired properly & compressor still runs with one of the thermostat wires lifted from the thermostats terminals , ( I'm assuming that's where you've remove the wire from) it should shut off, then it's getting line voltage back-feed into it. which isn't likley.
Note that the schematic shown doesn't involve the compressor or thermostat circuts at all, it ( the wiring block shown in the schematic ) only gets it's line voltage from the compressor harness/wiring block down on the compressor deck,
so if you've disconected the wire(s) from either pin/socket # 1-[plain] or #8-[ribbed] you are only disconnecting the line voltage into the machines vending & lighting circut, be sure to try it from teh back of the T-Stat proper, & watch out, it's a "hot" connection ( tape the loose end up to prevent shorting it out on the chassis/shock)

Spoon-feeding Newbies since 2001... Yeah..220,221 whatever it takes. Remember, all it needs is a shot of Freon! The Vendo V-83 is the '59 Edsel of the coke machine world. ;p Spray painting does NOT restore a compressor 11 is louder than 10... "Hope" is good, but it's not an action plan.

I tried it from the back of the t-stat and it still runs. Could I be low on freon?

Follow your T/S wires all the way back to the junction box. They must be touching each other somewhere.

T/S = T stat right?
Thanks for the reply

could the wires be inserted in the junction box incorrectly?

The pic. you show is the mechanical terminal block, you want to find the refrigeration junction box

ok 2 more questions
1) what does the refrigeration junction box look like and where is it usually located?
2) some of the wires for the compressor go into the mechanical terminal block, if these wires are in the wrong order could that be the cause of my problems?
Thanks guys I am learning

I did a quick search on "wiring" in the Refrigeration Section and came up with an old thread dealing with refrigeration wiring for a V-39. The image will give you a better understanding of a simple wiring for the refrigeration system. reviewing this should get you on track to trouble shoot where the possible problem may be...
Refrigeration Section: Wiring
Hopefully helpful...

thanks Jim. I found that wires for the vending mech were creating a circuit with the T-stat wires in the junction box. I removed the wires for the vending rack because the machine vends for free anyways. Now the compressor runs differently and it does not get as cold as fast but gets as cold over 20- 30 min. I still have ice on the evap coils so I dont know if I fixed it or not yet.

That sounds like low on freon...
