The Light Switch is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. This switch is responsible for controlling the refrigerator's interior light, turning it on when the door is opened and off when it is closed.

• The interior light staying on when the refrigerator door is closed
• The light not activating when the refrigerator door is opened
• Intermittent or flickering light due to a loose connection or faulty switch

Causes of light switch failure typically involve mechanical wear from repeated use, accumulation of dirt or debris that can interfere with the switch mechanism, or electrical issues such as short circuits.

This thermostat knob is the control dial used to set temperature on compatible ranges and ovens, restoring a clear pointer and easy grip when the original knob is cracked, faded, or missing. It provides a simple, user-facing control for the appliance thermostat. What it does:

• Turns the thermostat control shaft to select cooking temperature settings.
• Replaces cracked, worn, broken, loose, or missing knobs that make temperature adjustments difficult.
• Restores a visible pointer/indicator for accurate temperature selection.
• Improves grip and tactile feedback for safer, easier temperature changes.

• Turn appliance controls OFF and cool before replacing the knob.
• Remove the old knob by pulling it straight off the control shaft; align the new knob splines with the shaft and push on until fully seated.
• If the knob is stuck, use gentle rocking while pulling; do not pry on surrounding surfaces or force the shaft.
