Wiring fan in Norcold N1095

[TexasTwoStep]

I have a bad frost build-up on the fins and want to wire a fan which will clamp on the fins. Can anyone tell me if a constant 12v source can be obtained from this incoming wiring harness and how to wire it?

Gary, your's is different since my fridge is a Norcold 1200, but I was able to pick up a constant 12VDC source at the connector going to the light at the top. Just use a voltmeter to check it. If you're not sure about the ground, you can probably use the fins as a ground point. You'll have to have someone hold the door switches closed that turn on the light so you can find the 12VDC with the light off.

Mine doesn't have a door switch.

Does yours not have a light inside that comes on when you open the door?

Mine has a light, but no switch onthe door. I guess the light is turned off by another mechanism.

There's gotta be some kind of switch there! It may be a magnetic switch behind the plastic that you can't see.
