It still must get its 12v from the power supply board at the back though? Mine has +12 wire going from J1 to door switch, then to lamp, then back to J2. The board has -12 from J4 to the chassis bonding terminal block at the back where the fridge-battery wires go to.
It does get 12V power from the board or somewhere, and that power is consistently reliable to the light. I don't know if there's a switch on the board to kill the light during storage; it would make sense if there was, as the light is otherwise on even if the fridge is not turned on (and indeed I've added a separate toggle switch to allow the light to be turned off without having to remove the bulb, which may have been unnecessary extra work).
At any rate, I am perfectly fine with my fridge; it keeps things cold when it should, and has given no hassle at all that hasn't been obvious operator error, such as forgetting to turn it back on after turning it off temporarily for one reason or another.
