Refrigerator & Freezer Repair

The light went out in the refrigerator as well as the setting lights on the control box. Everything runs fine except for the lights in the refrigerator side. I've changed the door switch to no avail and now I suspect the control box is faulty. How difficult is the control box replacement on this model?

Sounds like the problem is a bad main control board on the back of the refrigerator (#18 at the diagram). This part is not too difficult to replace if you know how to handle a simple tools. Do not forget to unplug the refrigerator.

- The main control board Part number: W10135090
