Possible Causes
Burned-out light bulb or LED module, Failed door switch, Loose light socket wiring
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the freezer before replacing bulbs or working on the light circuit.
Steps to restore interior light:
- 1. Replace bulb: If your Kenmore freezer uses a standard appliance bulb, remove the lens cover and replace the bulb with the correct wattage and type.
- 2. Test door switch: Press the door switch and see if the light flickers or comes on. If not, test the switch for continuity and replace if faulty.
- 3. Inspect LED module (if equipped): On LED models, the entire light module may need replacement. Remove the cover, disconnect the module, and install a new Kenmore-compatible LED assembly.
- 4. Check wiring: Ensure connectors to the light and switch are secure.
Note: Always use components rated for freezer use to withstand low temperatures.
