This is a door-activated switch that detects whether the oven door is open or closed. It controls functions such as the oven light or signals the control board about door position. Replace this switch if the oven light stays on or off regardless of door position, or if the oven does not operate correctly due to a faulty door signal.

Oven light not working or saw a flash near the bulb? This light socket houses the oven bulb and is a straightforward DIY fix in under 30 minutes.

The Light Bulb (40W) is an OEM part for Frigidaire appliances. Specifically designed to fit and function with Frigidaire models, this 40-watt bulb illuminates the interior of your oven, making it easier to check on the progress of your baking or roasting without opening the oven door.

Over time, oven light bulbs can burn out or be damaged from high temperatures or accidental bumps during cleaning or cooking. A functioning light bulb is crucial for the optimal operation of your oven, enhancing visibility and improving your cooking experience.

Symptoms of a bad Light Bulb include:

• The oven interior remains dark when the light switch is engaged.
• Flickering light, indicating a loose connection or nearing the end of the bulb's lifespan.
• Completely non-functional light, which can hinder your ability to monitor cooking progress.

This OEM Frigidaire part can also be used on Electrolux, Frigidaire, Gibson, Kelvinator, Westinghouse, and Sears/Kenmore.

The Lens is an OEM component for Frigidaire freezers. It acts as a transparent cover and protective barrier for the freezer compartment lights. Crafted for durability and clarity, the lens avoids frost and minimizes condensation while allowing visibility inside the freezer.

Causes of a bad lens can include deep scratches or cracks developing over time from repeated wiping or exposure to chemicals like frost removers.

Symptoms of a bad freezer lens include:

• Cloudiness, fogginess, or smears inhibiting internal visibility
• Cracks or breaks compromising the protective barrier
• Distorted views make it difficult to assess food levels
• Diffused lighting with shadows instead of a clear view

This OEM Frigidaire part can also be used on Electrolux, Frigidaire, Gibson, Kelvinator, Westinghouse, and Sears/Kenmore.
