Introduction
Go to step 1 ↓Use this guide to replace the door light or LED light in your Whirlpool Refrigerator.
The door light illuminates the right side of the refrigerator. If the lighting in your refrigerator is dim or dark, then the door light might be broken.
This guide will work for most Whirlpool refrigerators. This guide is written with a model WRS315SDHW refrigerator. If you have a different model, you may encounter some minor disassembly differences, but the overall repair process will be the same.
Note: Some photos show the doors removed for clarity purposes. Removing them is not required and will not change the procedure.
