Refrigerator beeps and shows F11, fresh food compartment too warm

Safety: Disconnect power before removing switch components.

• Step 1 – Check door closure: Ensure the door closes fully and is not obstructed by food items or shelves. Verify the gasket is not warped.
• Step 2 – Test door switch: Locate the door switch (usually at the frame). Press it manually; the interior light should turn off. If not, the switch may be faulty.
• Step 3 – Inspect and replace: Pry out the switch carefully, disconnect the wires, and test continuity with a multimeter. Replace the switch if it does not change state when pressed.
• Step 4 – Refit correctly: Install the new Panasonic door switch, ensuring it aligns with the door so it is fully depressed when closed.
