Customer Questions and Answers for Refrigerator Damper Assembly by Ge

Terry. You have two different issues, The upper refrigerator light is a 120 VAC circuit which terminates at the power cord. You'll need to check the door light switch, the socket and the bulb, there is also a thermostat in the circuit that will open, if the light remains on too long, you'll need to check the thermostat if the switch and socket check OK. The damper is the more likely problem for the refrigerator not cooling, but the freezer being fine. The damper opens and closes depending on the inputs from the sensor(s) in the refrigerator. The damper motors and linkage can/do get stuck or the motor gets out of sink, and will only open when the control is "re booted" by the power supply.
