I have recently had to bite the bullet and buy a new Thetford Fridge Freezer to replace my old clapped out Electrolux/Dometic. My old unit 12v was connected to a plate marked with three terminals which were marked + D+ -
A red cable was connected to the positive, a blue cable to the D+ and a Black to the Neutral. On the Fridge side of the connector the Red was matched to a Red, the Blue to a White and a Black to a Black. With the new Thetford I am faced with the problem of connecting my old Red, Blue and Black wires to a block which has a Red, White and much skinnier Purple, Orange and Black. If I were to wire these into a new strip connector, how should the old wires connect to the new. I would be grateful for any pearls of wisdom. I have connected the 240v and gas easily. The attached image shows the new prewired White plug and my old wires are lying at the bottom of the phot.
