Refrigerator Door Switch – Part Number: 6600JB1010A

Refrigerator Door Switch
★★★★★
★★★★★
(98)
Part #6600JB1010A
The interior light in your refrigerator is controlled by a switch that is activated when the door is opened and closed. If your refrigerator light will not turn on, or stays on when the door is closed, you could have a faulty switch. The switch is spring-loaded and is a generally closed type of switch meaning there should be no continuity when the button is pushed, and continuity through the switch when it is no longer engaged. This plastic, white, OEM switch is sourced directly from the manufacturer, is sold individually and is easy to replace. The repair usually takes less than 15 minutes and requires a flat-blade screwdriver and needle-nose pliers.

Refrigerator Front Plate Assembly
★★★★★
★★★★★
(102)
Part #AGU75188619
This front plate assembly, also known as a mullion or flipper, is a genuine replacement part designed for select LG and Kenmore French-door refrigerators. It serves a critical function by sealing the gap between the doors, preventing cold air from escaping and helping maintain consistent internal temperatures. Constructed from durable plastic, it supports both the performance and appearance of the appliance. A failing mullion may result in poor sealing, visible gaps, increased energy consumption, and potential food spoilage. Replacing this component can restore proper door alignment and improve overall efficiency. Compatibility should be confirmed using your refrigerator’s model number prior to installation.

If your screw is missing or broken, it may need to be replaced. There are multiple handle screws on your fridge, please consider ordering extra as they commonly wear at the same rate. This is about 1 inch long and metallic in color.

Part #MEG61899901

Evaporator Fan Motor – Part Number: 4681JB1027C
$109.40

Evaporator Fan Motor
★★★★★
★★★★★
(8)
Part #4681JB1027C
This is a genuine OEM evaporator motor that directly powers the evaporator mechanism within your refrigerator. This mechanism is responsible for pulling air over the evaporator coils, which are cold, and circulating that cold air back throughout the appliance. Without this motor, the interior of your refrigerator would build up frost, strain the compressor, and simply not cool your fridge enough. A warm fridge, frost buildup or unusual noises are all signs that this fan needs replacing, and over time or through excessive dust building up, motor issues will arise and can cause it to fail. This fan motor is sold as an individual part, so it does not come with any securing screws or the fan blade itself. Replacing the evaporator fan motor will require your user manual and Philips-head and flathead screwdrivers. You need to gain access to the evaporator cover, which you will need to locate using your user manual schematics. Once the cover is removed and you disconnect the wire harnesses within it, you can disassemble the fan mechanism on its inside portion. With the fan mechanism disassembled, remove the old mechanism and install the new one, with the securing screws and wire harnesses.

Ice maker Assembly Kit
★★★★★
★★★★★
(11)
Part #AEQ72910409
This is an ice maker assembly kit designed for use within LG refrigerator-freezers. Ice makers are made to pull water from the water line, freeze it, and then store it in the form of cubes to be dispensed or crushed, depending on your preference and the model of the refrigerator. This assembly comes with the entire ice-making assembly, not the portion that stores and dispenses the ice cubes from the dispenser. If your current ice maker is simply not making enough ice or any at all, or is broken or damaged in any way, it must be replaced. This ice maker assembly is made entirely of durable white plastic and connects via its single wire harness and features an on/off switch that needs to be turned on for it to function. This assembly is sold individually and does not come with any other ice maker parts.

GASKET ASSEMBLY,DOOR
★★★★★
★★★★★
(7)
Part #ADX73350633
This refrigerator door gasket is a durable, flexible rubber seal designed to create a tight closure around the door, helping maintain proper temperatures and overall cooling efficiency. It replaces worn or damaged gaskets that can cause cold air leaks, excess moisture, or door sweating. The gasket is shaped for a precise fit along the door frame, restoring an even, reliable seal once installed. Installation is typically straightforward—warming the gasket slightly can help it seat properly, and then it can be pressed into the existing groove around the door to ensure a smooth, secure fit.

Remove and replace light switch

  • Debbie from Waltham, MA
  • A Bit Difficult

  • Pliers, Screw drivers
Video makes it look easy. Kenmore refrigerator does not have "groove" along the right hand side of switch that allows for pushing down on release. Used a thin screwdriver to get under to push while holding switch edge with pliers. Kept slipping. Tape sides to avoid scratching inside of refrigerator.

My nephew accidentally forced the door closed last year, which resulted in the door having to be re closed manually folding back the flap. Ugh!
