Fill the connector up with some type of sealant such as RTV silicone before squeezing it onto the wires. If you don’t have the tool required to squeeze the connector on you will be better off using wire nuts but still fill it with sealant before you tighten the nut. The reason for the sealant is to keep moisture from getting to the wires possibly causing the sensor to get a false reading. Refrigerator repair guide
