Parts for Whirlpool MH6140XKB0: 05 - Interior, Optional Parts

The Whirlpool light bulb is an OEM replacement part responsible for providing illumination within the appliance, typically found in the interior of a refrigerator or oven. This incandescent bulb features a small screw-in base and clear glass. It operates at 120 volts and has a power rating of 25 watts. Its primary function is to emit light when the appliance's door or lid is opened, allowing users to see and access the contents inside.

Causes of a bad light bulb can include regular wear and tear from frequent use, electrical surges, or damage from handling. Over time, light bulbs naturally burn out and require replacement to maintain adequate lighting inside the refrigerator.

Symptoms of a bad light bulb include:

• The refrigerator or freezer compartment being dark when the door is opened
• Flickering or dim lighting
• A completely non-functional light bulb

This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

This electrical safety fuse opens the circuit when a short or overcurrent occurs. Replacing a blown fuse can help restore power after the root cause is corrected, protecting controls and wiring from further damage.

• Protects the appliance by interrupting power during overcurrent or short-circuit events
• When open/blown, the appliance may be completely unresponsive
• Helps prevent damage to control boards and wiring during faults
• Often fails after a component shorts or a power surge occurs

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing
• Use a multimeter to test the fuse for continuity; replace only if open
• Install a fuse with the exact same rating and form factor as the original
• If the new fuse blows again, stop and diagnose the underlying fault; consider service for high-voltage systems
