2. Locate the light: The LED assembly is flush-mounted inside the fridge cabinet. You may need to remove the upper shelf to access the retaining snaps.
3. Remove the old unit: Gently pry out the clear plastic cover using a thin flathead screwdriver or plastic trim tool. The cover is secured by two snaps — press them inward and pull the cover forward.
4. Swap the LED assembly: The LED module is clipped inside the clear cover. Release the retaining snap, disconnect the wiring plug, and connect the new W11048980 assembly.
5. Reassemble: Snap the clear cover back into place, replace the shelf, restore power, and enjoy your bright, refreshed refrigerator.

💡 Tip: Wear work gloves to protect your hands from sharp edges inside the cabinet.
