I used a few electrical nut connectors and I needed some plumbers putty where the electric lines exit to insulate the cold control device, there was some of the original putty but it fell apart when I disassembled the unit. I guess it boils down to the old process of elimination, but getting advise here will be my future first move if anything goes wrong.
