Possible Causes
Stuck or broken door switch, Misaligned door not pressing switch, Faulty control board not turning light off
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the refrigerator before replacing switches.
Steps:
- Test switch: Press the door switch manually; the light should turn off. If not, the switch or control is faulty.
- Inspect alignment: Ensure the door contacts the switch plunger fully when closed.
- Replace switch: Pry out or unscrew the switch, disconnect wires, and install a new one.
Note: If the switch is good but the light remains on, the control board may need professional diagnosis.
