Sorry, we couldn't find any existing installation instruction that matched.
The light would not turn on when the refrigerator door was opened
I removed the plastic portion to get to the switch and wires. I removed the old switch by disconnecting the two wires and pushing it out of its setting.

I discovered the old switch only had 2 prongs where the new switch had 3. Once I figured which 2 of the 3 prongs would light the lightbulb,
I then connected the two wires to the correct prongs of the new switch. I pushed the new switch into its setting and replaced the plastic portion on the refrigerator. Voila, success. The refrigerator door now comes on when its door is opened.

Thanks for the having the part and getting it at our door step in 3 days.

Freezer compartment lights not working. I know there's power to the switch. I know that the led lights are good and work. I have a new switch on order. If replacing the switch doesn't solve the problem, where do i look next? Is the next step to replace a circuit board. If so, where is it located and what is the part number?
For model number jsc23c9eem00

Hi Michael, thank you for your question. I would suggest looking at your lights themselves if the switch is not the issue. I have linked that part below for you. If that part is fine then I would go on to take a look at control board being the issue. I hope that helps. Good luck with your repair.
