@@ScottTheFixItGuyChannel This is the absolute worst design for a fridge light. We should all send a letter whirlpool to complain that this should not have been so complicated. I thought I was going to Break the cover of of the part just to get to the main area. There's no design for it to be removed. Crazy thing is then you have to still drop the entire receptacle off to still get to the light. Hour and a half project for me.

Wow! Man, Thank you for this! I've been scratching my head for weeks trying to figure out what to do about this light! My fridge has the screw in the cover, and when I took the screw out and saw there were no other screws, I was stomped! Ordered the part for under $100, and put it in less than 15 mins! Thanks!

Thank you for this video - big help. Pro Tip: I took the green board off and pushed on the dim LED... and it lit up again! So no need for replacement. Note though that if you remove the board, it will not snap in again. But that is a minor issue, because the board actually pushes down, so it is unlikely to become dislodged as long as the refrigerator is not moved or otherwise heavily shaken.

Thanks for this. New subscriber now. A regular silverware knife on the front right and left corners popped it off. It takes some force. I didn't want to bust it, but it was breaking my will. The fridge plastic held up fine for me. Good luck! Sacrifice the knife if needed. Replacement led strips on Amaz for 10 bucks worked fine so far. This is not a very consumer friendly design by Whirlpool. Side note....anyone else experience the incredibly loud ice maker pump or motor?

The LED Controller assembly alone is $403 (plus 8.5% sales tax) AND the LED panel part is $81 (plus 8.5% sales tax) on my WRX735SDBM03. My issue: One side of the LEDs were completely out. My resolution: I unplugged the fridge, unplugged the assembly, removed the LED panels and inspected them for missing solder. Then I stuck in 2 small paper clips in each of the small holes next to each LED light (2 for each of the 4 LEDs) and removed. Screwed the panels back on, the controller back in, plugged the assembly back in and plugged the fridge back in - WORKED!! Both LED sides are back on and bright again. Open and closed each door individually 5 times and then open/closed both doors simultaneously 5 times: Lights turned on each time, full brightness without fail.

I have model WRX735SDHZ03. The LED light suddenly became very weak. I tried to remove the cover, but it did not move at all. I did not see any screw in the back that I can take off. Does anyone know how to fix it? Thanks in advance.

Thanks, Only video I could find. Whirlpool wants you to call its service dept. Why made it so complicated to replace just for the light? Only 3 years and it broke. Junk material and design. Never replaced a fridge light so difficult like this and usually lasted over 10 years.

If you buy just the circuit board and not the whole assembly, you can pop out those plastic rivets with a knife and replace the new board by using hot glue or sugru. Both will likely cause issues with warranty but if your doing this, you probably don't care

The whole "just depress the tabs" BS is infuriating. Since it's made out of plastic, you're living in fear that you're using way too much force. There's NO tool guide to make sure you're putting the screwdriver in the right place. The bottom of the tab where you're supposed to be exerting force has no flange to hold the screwdriver tip in place. Over all, a really crappy design. I finally resorted to putting the screwdriver over the module and forcing it down. It popped out with a horrendous noise, but it did come out. No damage. The rest went smoothly.
