I replaced the imside bulb and light still does not turn on. I checked bulb and works fine in lamp. I also measured socket for voltage and meter reads "zero" volts. I measured refrigerator outlet source and meter reads 120V. The dispenser panel lights all work fine. Hopefully the bulb socket is the problem. How is the bulb socket replaced? Is it hard wired or does it plug in? If it does plug in then how do you unplug it? I tried pulling on it without success.

Gene,

It's the inside light in the non-freezer side. The freezer side light works fine.

Hi Charlie,

Check the door switch. The power to the light socket has to be tested with the door switch taped in. Redo it.

If the switch is good and there is no power to the socket then the problem is a bad main control board (in the unit compartment).

- The main control board Part number: W10135090
Part number: W10135090
