Possible Causes

Burnt-out LED module or bulb, Faulty door switch, Loose lamp connector, Failed light driver on main PCB

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the freezer before replacing any light components.

  • Check door switch: Press the door switch manually and see if the light flickers. Replace the Hitachi door switch if it does not change state.
  • Inspect lamp module: Remove the lamp cover and check for visible damage or darkened LED module.
  • Replace lamp: Install a genuine Hitachi LED lamp module or bulb of the correct type.
  • Check wiring: Ensure the lamp connector is fully seated and wires are intact.
  • Control PCB: If the lamp and switch are good but no voltage is present at the lamp, the main control PCB light driver may be faulty.
