The inside light switch no longer works unless you hold it.I don't know if the switch itself is broken or something came loose.How do I remove the panel that houses the light and switch?Thanks from a newbie

To replace the light switch unplug the fridge and pry the switch out of the cabinet.

It is likely the switch if you have to hold the button.

Here is a link to your fridge model TBX21JA.

To get a better parts list you will need the last five letter of your model number.

There should be a tag in the fridge section with the model and serial number.
