Part W11226500 Refrigerator LED Light Board
Purpose
Provides energy-efficient interior illumination for the refrigerator.
Details
The W11226500 is a genuine OEM LED light module designed for Whirlpool-built refrigerators, including KitchenAid and JennAir models. This high-efficiency circuit board replaces failed internal lighting to restore clear visibility within the fresh food or freezer compartments. Unlike traditional bulbs, these LED modules are engineered for longevity and minimal heat output; however, they can eventually fail due to moisture intrusion or electrical surges. Common symptoms of failure include a light that is completely out, flickering, or very dim. Because many modern refrigerator lighting systems are wired in a series, a single failed W11226500 module can sometimes cause other lights in the unit to malfunction. Replacing the faulty board with this factory-original part ensures proper voltage compatibility and prevents damage to the main control board.
