    It should be a faulty thermostat. Get an external to connect to your chiller.

    If the thermostat displays the right temperature, but the compressor doesn't switch off, probably some kinda stuck relay in the unit. In this case, there are 2 ways to fix it, get the original relay replaced, or get an external thermostat, both will get your chiller to work right again.
    The external thermostat does have the added bonus of being about to measure the temp from right within your tank instead of the water in the chiller, which should be a better gauge.
