Has my fridge stopped working, or is it only the light?
Troubleshooting your refrigerator light will help you to determine whether it’s the bulb or something else. This may be why the light won’t work. A fridge that is not cooling correctly could indicate a problem.
You can try a few things to fix the problem if your refrigerator light does not work. Check the switch on the door to see if the light is activated when you open the door. Tighten the bulb and replace it with a brand-new one. You may need an expert to fix more complex issues, such as the wiring or light bulb socket.
Step 1: Check that the refrigerator is properly plugged in
Check that the fridge’s power cord and plug are securely connected.
Step 2: Tightening your light bulb
Make sure to screw the fridge light bulb tightly into the socket. If the bulb has burned out or broken, replace it with a similar one. You must check the owner’s guide for any specific part numbers.
Step 4: Replace the switch on your refrigerator door
If you have a fridge that is not working correctly, there may be a problem with the switch on the door. Depending on the model, the door switch may be at the top or lower part of the door. The door switch could not turn on and off if you opened or closed the fridge door if it isn’t correctly aligned. Also, the light could have gone out if your door was left open.
Step 5: Check the wiring of your refrigerator
Check the wiring plug connector. Unplug the fridge and inspect the top cover hinge for any exposed wires or other wiring issues. Consult the installation instructions or manual to find out how to remove the hinge cover and wiring plug. You should also contact an electrician or appliance technician when dealing with electrical issues.

Step 6:Check the refrigerator light socket.
The light socket may also be damaged, resulting in an inactive fridge. Wires that are not secure, discoloration of the socket, or a crack could all be signed. Call a repair professional if you suspect a light socket is damaged.
Does my fridge need a light bulb?
Appliance bulbs are specifically designed to withstand temperatures that are found in refrigerators. While an ordinary bulb can fit into the socket of a fridge, it is best to choose one that can handle cold conditions.
