Frigidaire FFTR1514TW Lightbulb Replacement

Introduction

This guide demonstrates how to replace a Frigidaire FFTR1514TW Lightbulb. Most of us rely on our refrigerator light, especially when it comes to obtaining a late-night snack. What happens, though, if the light does not turn on when the door opens? Odds are the lightbulb has simply reached the end of its lifespan.

If your fluorescent bulb breaks, the mercury can escape as vapor, or as powder that settles on your carpet. Mercury poisoning is extremely serious and can cause health problems, so take extreme caution if you're replacing a fluorescent bulb.

When you replace the light bulb, make sure it's the same size, shape, type, and wattage as the one currently in your refrigerator.
