LG Refrigerator Magnet Switch EBF61314813 – Superseded by EBF62234504

Is This the Right Part?

Common Symptoms

• Interior light may remain on or fail to respond correctly when the door moves.
• Door-open alarm or chime may continue after the door is closed.
• Door-dependent functions, such as water dispensing, may remain disabled because the refrigerator does not recognize the door as closed.
• Energy-saving behavior may not activate normally after the door closes.

Check Before Replacing

• With power disconnected and following the model-specific service procedure, inspect the switch area and door magnet for displacement, damage, or obstruction.
• Verify that the door magnet approaches and aligns with the switch when the door is fully closed; incorrect alignment can prevent proper sensing.
• If service documentation for the refrigerator specifies electrical testing, check switch continuity with the magnet correctly aligned and observe the documented result; do not diagnose the switch from symptoms alone.
• Check whether unrelated wiring, connectors, or the control board could be causing the same door-status symptom before replacing the switch.

Installation Notes

• Disconnect refrigerator power before servicing electrical components.
• Use the refrigerator’s model-specific service instructions because switch access and mounting can vary by model.
• Install the switch in its original location and preserve the original connector and wire routing.
• After installation, verify that the door magnet aligns with the switch and that the interior light and door-status functions respond normally.
