Maytag Refrigerator Light, Bulb, Lamp

The Light Bulb Socket is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. It is responsible for housing the bulb that illuminates the interior fridge light. The socket provides a protective casing and stable electrical connection for the light bulb. Its interior components are precisely arranged to safely conduct current to the bulb. 

Causes of a bad light bulb socket can include cracks, loose connections, or damaged internal wiring due to regular use over time.

Symptoms of a bad light bulb socket include:

• The fridge interior light failing to turn on
• The bulb burning out quickly  
• Flickering or intermittent lighting

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

This replacement light bulb restores visibility inside your appliance so you can quickly see food, settings, and contents. Replace a burned-out or flickering bulb to bring back bright, reliable illumination in compatible models. What it does:

• Provides interior light when the door is opened or the light switch is activated
• Directly replaces a failed, dim, or intermittently flickering bulb
• Helps you see items and controls clearly during use

• Replaces cracked, discolored or missing lenses that cause uneven or dim lighting.
• Helps maintain the original look of the control area and prevents further wear to the light assembly.
