I need help, please. I just received my new TXED012 last week and found that the wiring for the two plugs on the back panel were disconnected. The terminal ends or clips are too big for the tabs and they fall off when I try to connect them. I have tried to contact Tuxing service ,but have gotten a brief (we'll get back to you on this) last week. All I need is something that tells me what color wires go on what tabs. Any help would be much appreciated.
Wiring for a TXED012 compressor
- Thread starter Dallas1
- Start date
Can you provide pics of the wiring and if possible show where they go to. It's all fairly straight forward like home electrical. If its like my big tuxing with a mag switch and breaker it gets more confusing looking. Also what voltage? I hope we can talk you thru this. Best of luck

Thank you for responding so quickly. I have attached 4 pictures, the front of the panel showing the main power input plug and the plug used for the pump. I sent a picture of the back of the panel, showing that the main power plug has three tabs and the pump plug with two tabs. The other two pictures are of the wires. There are two black wires, two red wires and one yellow/green stripped wire

The plug on right, it’s red on top terminal, yellow green on middle terminal, and black on bottom terminal. The plug on left , top terminal red, bottom terminal black. If you get pliers and compress the terminals a bit, they should fit right tight.

mine came in exactly like that and that’s what I did. No problem.
I can't help with the where of the wiring, but if you take a pair of needle nosed pliers (or regular, if you don't have NNP) and gently squeeze each side of the circular portion of the terminal ends, they will fit snugly.
Looking at the terminal end as if your eye were the spade going inside, you'll see that each side is like an open circle. In your case, the circle is TOO open, and you need to close it down a bit so that it grips the spade when sliding them together.

thank you for the hint. I did as you suggested and it worked great. (now if I just knew what wires go where??)

Thanks so much. It worked perfectly. I was really concerned that I would ruin a $400.00 compressor by wiring it backwards (or sideways or upside down, you get the idea.) completed the setup last night and was amazed at how quiet it was compared to my Yung Hang.

I'm glad you have got your wires working. I see you have been on form for long time. Just wanted to mention that I too have a TXED012
, and I'm useing Seco Lube 500 oil.
I'm also using Royal purple purple ICE Which is an additive to the distilled water that helps keep the system clean , and cool. OV.

I am using Royal Purple compressor oil. I used distilled water in my Yung Hang and it lasted 4 years, so I am using that plus a coolant . I located my water tank on the same level as the compressor. I heard that the thing that wears out these little pumps is having to push the water up 36 inches from the floor to the compressor ir it is on a table or bench.

I was using Royal Purple compressor oil , but after doing research on the oil
I learned that it is not a breathing oil like the Seco , plus the seco has a 150 viscosity over the 100 of RP. It is also a very clean clear oil , and does not leave carbon deposits. I did a forum post called Royal Purple Ice advice where the that , and the oils are dissuced in depth. I filled a 8.6 liter , and the highest temp I reached was 120°F.
