5309918806 - Electrolux Refrigerator Door Light Switch

This Electrolux Refrigerator Door Light Switch (5309918806) is a genuine part designed to ensure compatibility with various Electrolux home appliances. Also compatible with brands including Frigidaire, Tappan, Gibson, Kelvinator, Westinghouse, Amana, and Crosley, this part seamlessly integrates into your refrigerator's door mechanism. Commonly referred to as a "door/light switch" or simply a "light switch," it plays a critical role in your refrigerator's functionality.

As you open and close your refrigerator door, this switch gets activated. When the door is open, the switch turns on the light inside your appliance to illuminate your food and shelves. Conversely, closing the door deactivates the switch, which in turn, turns off the light. This mechanism not only adds to the convenience but also aids in energy conservation. Made in a standard white color, the switch fits neatly, measuring roughly one inch in thickness, two inches in height, and 1.5 inches in depth. Symptoms indicating a need for replacement include a light that stays on when the door is closed or fails to illuminate when opened. Testing for continuity can help determine if your current switch is defective. Before making your purchase, it’s advisable to check that the Electrolux Refrigerator Door Light Switch is compatible with your refrigerator's model number.
