It sounds like you have a switch that isn't closing when the door shuts. I'm not overly familiar with the LG's, but looking at the Sears Parts Direct site, it looks like the door switches are in the hinge covers on top of the unit. There should be two of them, one for each door. But, only one has to not be working to keep the light on. The first thing I would check is to make sure the hinge cover isn't loose or out of position. The switch should close when the door closes. If the hinge cover moves, then the switch won't close. If everything is tight and aligned, then one of the switches is bad. That can be checked with a volt meter that does continuity checks. Unplug the unit before checking because those wires should be hot at all times. If you don't have a meter and want to do trial and error, just buy one switch since they both are the same. Here is the parts diagram showing the switch locations and part numbers:

The switch is 402A on the diagram, located on top of the box. If you click on the parts diagram, you can enlarge it to get a closer look.
The switch part number is 6600JB3007E
Hope this helps

While repairing interior lights all the powerwent dead. Vehicle wont turn over. Dead is this circuit?

You blew a large fuse in the engine compartment, like a 50A+ type most likely. Find the fuses in the engine, look at the biggest ones individually and look for one melted internally, then get the replacement. Take a picture of where it is and how it's installed in the vehicle before you remove it, so you can put the replacement one back in correctly.

INTERIOR LIGHTS WONT GO OFF. KILLING BATTERY.

Probably bad headlamp switch. You do know most have a position which turns the interior lights on even with the doors closed, don't you? If you have this turned off, but lights stay on, replace the switch.

Sears Kenmore Elite Frig Interion Light Wont Extinquish

Kevinh987,

I would suggest you contact Sears and ask them to repair it free of charge, I am not aware of this model as I am from the Great North. Depending who the OEM is, if Sears did not want to fix it, I would go after them.
