Introduction

If your KitchenAid KBRS22KWMS6 fridge’s light bulb has completed its hours, use this guide to replace the bulb of your fridge.

A light bulb illuminates the interior of a fridge and can provide clear visibility of items inside. Having a fused bulb makes it difficult to find small items and can cause further problems.

Before using this guide, it is recommended to purchase an appliance light bulb as you will have everything nearby. If the type of lightbulb is unclear, refer to step 5 for more information. You may want to purchase two sets of light bulbs just in case one set results in being faulty or defective.

Before attempting this fix, make sure to unplug the fridge from its power outlet.

    • Lift the shelf so that the hook at the end unlatches.

    • Once the hook is free, carefully slide the shelf out and place it somewhere safe, as it is made out of glass.

    • Repeat this for the remaining shelves to create space to conduct the replacement of the bulb.

    • After successfully removing the shelves, assess the housing of the light bulbs to get an understanding of how to remove the plastic cover.

    • This is necessary to avoid damaging the plastic cover because you will have to slide it off from the assembly.

    • Gently slide the plastic cover off to reveal the fused light bulbs.

    • After screwing the new light bulbs in their housing, plug the fridge back in to test whether the lights work.

    • If the light bulbs are not working, they may be faulty or defective. If this is the case, you will need to purchase new light bulbs.
