Matthew for Model Number 795.77553600

My twin bulbs were occasionally staying on when I opened the doors, all the way to the point where they only flickered for split second when opened. Naturally, I replaced the bulbs, twice, no avail. Still flickered. After some research, I purchased and installed new door switches (AP4650821). Still flickered. I just saw that this part (lamp socket EAG62831801)) could be the next step to replace, but I wanted to check with the experts first. With the lights flickering, what do you think would be the next step? Do you think it is Light bulb wattage issue? I'm currently trying to use a 60 Watt equivalent LED appliance bulb. Current bulb in use: YUKIHALU, LED Refrigerator Light Bulb 60W Equivalent A15 Appliance Fridge Bulbs, Waterproof 600 Lumen 7W 120V Daylight 5000K E26 Medium Base, Small Size Bulb for Damp Location, Not-Dim, 2-Pack Thanks! I have a Kenmore 795.77553600.

Answer

Matthew, it would be recommended that the wire connection to the light bulb socket assembly EAG62831801 is accessed and tested for 120 Volts AC from the blue wire to the pink wire with a meter. If there is a continuous voltage supply, the failure would likely be in the socket assembly. If the voltage is not constant, the failure would likely be in the main control 6871JB1423N. In regards to the bulb used, it would be suggested that the manufacturer recommended bulb 6912JB2004M is used as this will ensure the correct current draw is being applied through the main control.
