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.

• A completely non-functional light bulb

• Frequent cycling of evaporator fans and cooling components
• Defrost issues or Er/Ed error codes shown on displays

Causes can involve regular exposure to changing interior environments over many years. Mineral deposits accumulating may lead to sensor surfaces becoming insulated. Physical stress from overloading could potentially crack the thermistor over time as well. 

This OEM replacement part is compatible with some Kenmore Elite models too.
