How to Make Sure the Door Switch is Working

All single-door units and the refrigerator compartments of bottom-mount units
use a magnetic actuator to signal the door closure. If the door closure is not
recognized, the unit will not cool properly. When opening and closing the
door, you should hear an audible click generated by the door switch relay in
the upper section of the refrigerator.
If this seems to be the case, remove and inspect the magnetic actuator. The
inner magnet is polarized and marked with a red dot. Be sure that this red
mark is visible and pointing down towards the door.
