Default Whirlpool Conquest Light Problem
Brand: Whirlpool   Age: 1 - 5 years   

The light on the fridge section of our Conquest Fridge is not working (it flickers when the door opens, and the digital temperature guage is blank). Additionally, the fridge makes a sound similar to a flickering neon light from under the fridge when the door is open. THe freezer side operates normally. Replacing the lightbulb did not affect the problem.

Any ideas are greatly appreaciated,

In order to provide the most accurate advise I need the complete model number of the fridge.

Check the light switch.

If there is nothing wrong, then replace the main control board.

- The part number for the light switch is AP3132744

- The part number for the main control board is AP3837295

If there is proper power at the door switch then you have to check all wires according to the Wiring Diagram.

Here are the break down diagrams for the Whirlpool refrigerator Model GS6SHEXMS00
