Introduction
Go to step 1 ↓Use this guide to replace the door sensor or door switch in your Whirlpool WRS315SDHW Refrigerator.
The door switch detects whether or not the door is open or if the control board thinks it's open. If you're having trouble dispensing ice/water, or if your door light won't turn off, then your door switch might be broken.
Note: Some photos show the doors removed for clarity purposes. Removing them is not required and will not change the procedure.
