Bit late but 6 and 4 are the ones, Ta stufus, and 3 is for heater, but you don't have one so forget it. Some sparkies on this island attempt to cut capillary to size which is a bad move. Roll up what you don't use.

Hi guys its me again fitted the new vt9 thermostat last night and waited to see if it switched off ok
voila success all working well.. connected wires to pins 4 and 6 as you guys suggested..checked temp today and its a constant 5c wife happy im happy bank happy...even got the light to work when u open door....changed bulb but found the sw that opens when door opens was jammed took to bits put back together now all fine...
think total cost was £5.99 thermostat £2.25 for bulb not a bad price to pay...
thanks to all of you that helped me through this...
cheers agn..
