Hi all,

The lamp inside my old (93') Whirlpool refrigerator got broken. Which lamp
should I buy to replace it?

Thanks in advance
Sammy

Take it out, bring it to the hardware store, and ask for a replacement
appliance lamp, or look for an appliance lamp that has the same
wattage (should be on the bulb) and base size.
I already checked the old bulb. It is impossible to read any marks on it nor
voltage nor wattage. That is why I'm asking in this newsgroup. I already
tryed by using a 127V bulb but it does not light.
May be somebody knows which bulbs used to use old Whirlpool refigerators...

Hmmm,
Maybe problem is something else then.

Maybe problem is not the lamp then, checked the (interlock door)switch?

So it means any 127V bulb should work? I don't like the idea of disarming
anything to reach the switch. My father-in-law will not allow me to do so.
He is the actual owner of the refrigerator...

40 watt appliance bulb available everywhere. They usually come on a
blister card and are marked with the wattage and say "Appliance Bulb".
Any hardware store, KMart, Walmart etc, etc.

If you have the old bulb that came out of the fridge, put it in a lamp.
If it lights, it's something else in your fridge.
