Possible Causes
Door not fully closed, Misaligned door, Failed door switch, Broken door harness in hinge area
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Disconnect power before testing door switches electrically.
- Verify closure: Check for items blocking the door from closing fully. Adjust shelves or containers as needed.
- Inspect gaskets: Ensure door gaskets are not warped or torn, preventing full closure.
- Test door switch: Press the door switch plunger; the interior lights should turn off and fans should start. If not, the switch may be faulty.
- Replace switch: Pry out the switch carefully, disconnect the wires, and install a new GE door switch.
- Hinge wiring: On models with door-mounted controls, inspect the hinge wiring for breaks that could affect door status sensing.
