I completed the mods suggested includind adding the resistor, relocating the temp sensor and installing a new fan. I included pics because if anybody out there is like me, they need pics to figure things out. The fan I used was from intel that I got at an electronics store for 8.00. It is a 1 amp unit vs the 0.1 anp unit that came with the danby. It even fit in the existing mounting holes. Before the mods the internal air temp was 46 degrees at the lowest setting (with a full 15.5g keg in it). Now the internal air temp with a 5 g bucket of water is 28 degrees, water temp is 33.0 degrees with .25 inch of ice all the way around. Thanks for all the good info.

If you connected the fan to the existing leads it may only run when the compressor is on. More better would be to power it from outside the box with a DC wall transformer. Run the leads thru the co2 line hole.
