Possible Causes

Failed LED module, Open light wiring, Faulty door switch, Defective light driver on control board

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the freezer before replacing light modules or switches.

  • Check door switch: Press the door switch manually. If the light does not respond, test the switch for continuity and replace if faulty.
  • Inspect LED module: Remove the light cover and inspect the LED board for burn marks or water damage. Replace the LED module if damaged.
  • Test wiring: Verify continuity from the control board to the light module. Repair any breaks.
  • Control board: If switch, wiring, and LED are good, the light driver on the main board may have failed and require board replacement.
