40A15R - GE Refrigerator Bulb

This GE Refrigerator Bulb (40A15R) is a genuine part designed specially for GE refrigerators. It's optimized to withstand the unique conditions inside a refrigerator, including low temperatures and frequent door openings. Also known as "refrigerator light" or "interior light", this bulb is incandescent, made to provide the perfect amount of illumination inside your appliance when the door is opened. It's equipped with a small wattage to ensure only the necessary amount of lighting is provided, and its glass is specifically designed to filter and soften the light, enhancing your fridge's interior appearance while being energy efficient. When the door switch is activated, electric current flows to the bulb filament, heating it until it glows and lights up the interior of your appliance. This process ensures you can always see inside your fridge or freezer without any harsh lighting. However, if your refrigerator's interior remains dark despite the door being open, or if the light has become dim over time, it may indicate the bulb has burned out and needs replacement. Bulbs can fail due to long-term use or faulty connections, necessitating a replacement. Changing the bulb requires disconnecting the power and accessing the mounted socket to ensure safety during the installation process. Before purchasing, make sure to verify your refrigerator's model number to ensure compatibility with the 40A15R bulb.
