How to Test if the Door Switch is Activated
Testing if the Door Switch is Activated on your Jenn-Air Refrigerator
To Test the Interior Lights:
- The interior lights should come on when the door is opened.
- Depress the door switch manually with the door open to verify the interior lights are turning off and on.
- If the door switch is not shutting the light(s) off, the refrigerator may get too warm.
To Test the Ice Maker:
- Apply a piece of tape to the door switch.
- Wait 24 hours to see if ice has formed.
To Test the Water Dispenser:
- Manually depress the door switch with a piece of tape.
- Depress the dispenser paddle to call for water.
Is the Refrigerator Level?
- A refrigerator that is not level from side to side may appear to have doors that are not properly aligned causing the door switch to operate incorrectly.
- If the doors appear this way, refer to your Owner's Manual or Installation Instructions for Leveling and Door Alignment procedures.
