the closest thing I have to compare is my css-8-64 and when I wire the cooling unit like that one the light wont turn on in the bottle door. The diagram on the inside main door isnt much help and I cant copy the way my other uss-8-64 is hooked up because the vending mech isnt even hooked up becuase someone removed the part that locks the rockers.

I have a wiring diagram for the USS-64K, but it doesn't seem to include the refrigeration wiring...

Thanks Jim

Here is a photo of mine

I cant figure out where the diagram is telling me where to plug in the wires. I know plain wire goes into port 1 and ribbed wire goes into port 8 but if you look at the diagram the lines branch off. Thats where I became lost.

unless the branched line means right and straight line means left. The junction box in the diagram could be a side view

If you check voltage at terminal 1 & 8, you should have 120v.
This line feeds the refrigeration components and you'll need to determine which line  carries the voltage; I would think the ribbed side... This would then connect to the wiring harness for the refrigeration at which time the hot would be routed through the thermostat to control when voltage is applied to both the compressor and the condenser fan motor.
That should explain the short of things, no pun intended.

We like to promote our Site Sponsors!
Either Fun-Tronics or Soda Jerk Works should have the thermostat...
