Ohms all read zero on the thermal overload and between all terminals on the compressor so they all have continuity.
I ordered these for both compressors, as well as the dielectric grease Jack suggested.
Seems like there is a post which is part of the tab sticking up on each of the 3 terminals on the compressor. I hope there is enough room for that and the male connector and room to put the lid on the whole thing without bending the wires too bad.
I ordered some regular flag type non insulated connectors which is what is on there just in case.
I use this on all my electrical connections most certainly on battery connections.
Oh boy, dielectric grease, you’re going to get questions about that! Haha
Have at least 3-4 flavors of de-ox around at all times. Not to mention Mobil 28 grease for certain things. One thing is guaranteed with de-ox is that it will be all over you by the time you are done.
Jeff we lived in the Florida Keys for years and boating all over the place I found a good coat of grease of any kind on electrical connections has helped with corrosion so I continue to use it just habit I guess, I also use detox for electronic board connections.

Yea, well being in the electrical field I have all kinds of the stuff. We are an industrial and heavy commercial contractor so we get into all kinds of different systems.
Not seen a de-ox for electronics, but then again I really do not do a whole lot on that level. Most of my electronics stuff I have messed with was coach related and I really do not know that much about it.
I wish now that I had just bought two new boards from Newell rather than switching it all to 24-volt… someday I will have working SCS basement airs again (or the coach gets sold)…
