B.B. August 02, 2012 for Model Number GSL25IGREBS How do I check to see if the freezer switch is good?
1 Answer Hello B.B. You can test the switch WR23X21444. With the switch closed, it should read open and with the switch open, it should read closed. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3. Here is a link on how to use a multi-meter. http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html Read More...
Jdizzle January 23, 2012 for Model Number g s s 25 x s r d s s This switch has 3 wires. Which means it does more than just turn the light on. What else does it do? Does it power up the ice and water through the door?
1 Answer Hi J. It does more than the light control. It interrupts the power to the fouyntain control, and user interface board. The door switch is part # WR23X21444. Thank You. Read More...

Joel June 02, 2011 for Model Number WR23X10179 I tried following the answer to Susan ...the top of the old switch moves forward about 1/4 inch and that is it....can't seem to get it out with a flat blade...any ideas before I destroy the slot... thanks
1 Answer Hello Joel. If you look at the first picture, you will see the tab you are trying to disengage to allow the switch to slide out. Depending on how your switch sits on the unit. You will have to use the picture for reference to locate the correct side to use the putty knife type blade. Hope this helps! Read More...
Susan March 16, 2011 for Model Number pss26sgrc I accidentally snapped off the switch light sensor part in the freezer. It's located on the upper left of freezer. It controls the light on/off funtion in freezer. I can see the part in the parts diagram and it wiggles when I gently tug on it. Can I simply pull it out and put in new one? I wasn't sure exactly how the connection to the bulbs themselves work.
1 Answer Hello Susan! The light switch for the freezer section is WR23X21444. You can take a flat blade like a putty knife and gently pry out the old switch. Be careful not to damage the freezer liner. The replacement will plug in the original location. Hope this helps! Read More...
