The Door Switch is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. This switch plays a crucial role in monitoring the status of the refrigerator door. It detects when the door is open and closed and signals the refrigerator to suspend or resume cooling operations accordingly. 

Causes of a bad door switch can include general wear and tear over time, exposure to moisture, or impact damage. Please check for proper connection and that the wires are intact before replacing the switch.

Symptoms of a bad door switch include: 

• The refrigerator fails to resume cooling after closing the door
• The inside light fails to turn on when the door is opened
• Abnormal energy usage due to improper door monitoring

This OEM Whirlpool part can also be used on Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore/Sears brand appliances.
