I need to disable or otherwise bypass the defrost timer on my Kenmore model 106.4126801 refrigerator. I found the Invensys Appliance Controls circuit board (ADC2000) that controls it, and I pulled off the connector, but the compressor won't run because (i guess) I need to jumper some of the connectors leads. Any chance you know which connector pins I need to connect to make this work? Thanks

Sorry but I tried to find your model number at ApplancePartsPros and the Sears site with no success.

Are you sure that the model number is complete.
Kenmores are usually 3 digits, a period and then 8 more digits.
You only have 7.

So it seems to me that jumpering the black to the red would complete the circuit and I should leave the pink and orange disconnected to accomplish my goal; am I seeing that correctly? Sincere thanks.

I do not know why you want to disable defrost as your fridge will only run correctly for a couple days to a week.

Shorting black to red will keep the fans running all the time.
Disconnecting pink will disconnect the heater.

But if you disconnect orange your compressor will not run.
It also would have to be shorted to black.

I would only do this with the defrost board disconnected as you do not know what effect shorting out lines will do to/on the board, could cause a big spark etc.
