When you open the door and suddenly discover that your refrigerator is not cold enough, it’s easy to assume that something is wrong with the compressor, condenser, or even fan. After all, the problem must be that your refrigerator isn’t cooling correctly, right? Actually, no. It could be caused by the little lightbulb inside your fridge!

Even in situations when everything is working correctly in terms of your refrigerator’s cooling mechanisms, your fridge can still be too warm inside when the lightbulb isn’t turning off. Usually when you shut the door, the fridge lights automatically turn off; when they don’t, they can really heat up your refrigerator, causing the whole thing to feel too warm. As a result, food can spoil quickly, and the heat can even damage other fridge components.
