Here are a few practical tips to help you stay safe:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Turn off the power to the appliance by unplugging it or switching off the circuit breaker before starting any maintenance or repairs. This protects you from the risk of electric shock.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wear insulated gloves to shield your hands from sharp edges, pinching hazards, or debris.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Work at a steady pace and take your time to avoid accidents or injuries.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Make sure your workspace is well-lit so you can clearly see and access the parts you\u2019re working on.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Keep the area clear of clutter, and ensure children and pets stay out of the workspace.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Never handle internal parts with wet hands. Check that both your hands and the work area are completely dry.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Refer to your appliance\u2019s user manual for any specific instructions or safety guidelines related to the part or repair.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Handle parts gently to avoid damage to the appliance or potential injuries from applying too much force.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Use safety glasses when dealing with chemicals, dust, or large debris to protect your eyes from harm.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If the appliance was recently used, give it enough time to cool down before working on any heated components.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Take photos or notes of wiring connections and terminals before disconnecting anything to make reassembly easier.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Avoid touching exposed wires or terminals. If you must handle wires, use non-conductive tools or wear insulated gloves to minimize the risk of electrical shock.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Accessing the door light switches<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The first step is to gain access to the existing door light switches that need to be replaced. Here&#8217;s how:<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Open both fresh food compartment doors. The switches are located at the top corners of the refrigerator cabinet.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Using the quarter-inch nut driver, remove the five screws at the top of the refrigerator &#8211; two near each corner and one in the middle.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Lift up the top hinge cover on each side and set them aside.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Disconnect the electrical plug from the bracket in the center so the panel can be lifted up.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Carefully lift up the top panel to expose the door light switches. You should see one on each side.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With the top panel lifted, you&#8217;ll have clear access to remove and replace the two-door light switches.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Removing the old switches<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now that you can see the two existing door light switches, it&#8217;s time to remove them:<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Press the actuator on the old switch all the way in until it goes beyond the edge of the cover panel.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While holding the actuator in, slide a flat-blade screwdriver under the switch and gently pry it up and out of the bracket.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Make note of which wire color connects to each switch terminal for reference when reinstalling the new switch.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Remove the wires from the old switch terminals. Using the flat-blade screwdriver can help pry them off if needed.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Repeat steps 1-4 for the switch on the opposite side.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once the wires have been detached, you can fully remove the old door light switches and discard them.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Installing the new switches<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With the old switches removed, installing the new replacements is straightforward:<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Start with the right-side switch first since it only uses two terminals.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Attach the brown &#8220;common&#8221; wire to the top terminal.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Attach the white &#8220;normally closed&#8221; wire to the middle terminal.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Press the actuator on the new switch and push it firmly into the bracket until it clicks.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Move to the left side switch. Attach the black &#8220;normally open&#8221; wire to the bottom terminal.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Attach the pink &#8220;normally closed&#8221; wire to the middle terminal.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Attach the brown &#8220;common&#8221; wire to the top terminal.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Press this actuator in fully to secure the switch in the bracket.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Double-check that all wire connections are secure. The new switches are now installed!<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Finishing up<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once the new door light switches are securely in place, just wrap up with these final steps:<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Carefully reinstall the top panel, and reconnect the electrical plug.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Replace the two hinge covers on the sides.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Reinsert and tighten the five-quarter-inch screws at the top.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Plug the refrigerator power cord back in and turn it on.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Verify that the fresh food compartment lighting is working properly when you open and close the doors.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If the lights are working again with the new switches installed, the repair is complete! You may notice the lights turning on and off more reliably and consistently now.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">More information<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Thanks for reading!
