The GE Door Light Switch is an OEM Replacement Part that serves as the Freezer Door Fan and Light Switch. The switch is made from metal, wiring, and plastic. It plays an essential role in energy conservation by turning off the light when the refrigerator or freezer door is closed
Over time, the door light switch can wear out or fail due to frequent use, exposure to moisture, or electrical issues. When this happens, the interior light may not function correctly, which can hinder visibility inside the refrigerator.
Symptoms of a bad door light switch may include:
- Interior light not turning on when the door is opened
- Interior light not turning off when the door is closed
- Flickering or intermittent operation of the interior light
This switch is compatible with select GE and Hotpoint models.
