WR23X29161 General Electric Refrigerator Door Light Switch

Refrigerator Door Light Switch

The GE refrigerator door light switch is a genuine OEM replacement part designed for various GE brands, including Cafe, General Electric, Monogram, Haier, Hotpoint, Profile, Fisher & Paykel, and Sears-Kenmore. It plays a crucial role in managing the operation of the light within the refrigerator's fresh food compartment. Typically located in the door frame or on the cabinet, the switch activates the light when the refrigerator door opens and turns it off when the door closes. It achieves this by making electrical contact when the door is open, which illuminates the interior.

Common issues addressed by replacing the switch include:
- The refrigerator light failing to activate upon opening the door.
- Flickering or inconsistent performance of the interior light.
- Physical damage or deterioration of the switch's housing or electrical connections.

Additionally, this GE switch is compatible with appliances from Hotpoint, RCA, and Kenmore/Sears.
