Yes I put the resistor in parallel as shown on the little drawing "elder-of-dogtown" has attached I'm trying to attch the picture here, hopefully this works.

A couple warnings, if you don't think you have enough electrical experience to do this get some help. Also your temp readings will not be accurate so use a thermometer inside the unit so you don't end up with a frozen keg. Your unit may not act the same way as mine.
