It's Valentine's Day - let's fix the wife's wine fridge!
Hate it when those little fridges quit? For example little dorm units and beer/wine coolers. But wait, don't put them to the curb! Let's see if this guy can pull off a simple fix. Many times it isn't a big deal. Let's keep this from going to the curb.
Then stick around as we do a little science lab work on demonstrating the properties of Thermistors of both the PTC and NTC types: 2PQ-4.7 and CL-90.
Brand names that this unit is similar to:
Vissani, Danby, EdgeStar, Igloo, Summit etc coolers
I think these are made by Magic Chef.

If you attempt to do any of the things in this video you are at your own risk. I am using special tech-bench safety equipment not detailed here.
