I have the replacement light switch for frig side of a SubZero 690/S
refrigerator/freezer.
What is the easiest way to replace the switch?
Can it be popped/pried out from the door side or do I need to remove the top
grill and the cover over the switch and push it down and out?
The new switch looks like it snaps in. One side has a small ridge and the
other a plastic clip that holds it in place.
I know I have to shut power off first.

When I did it I removed the grill. It's a good opportunity to clean
the condenser (but I'm sure you do that regularly anyway :).

I've found that removing the grill and cleaning the condenser twice each
year is needed. I wish SubZero had a better design for the attachment
of the grill though.

I did come in from the grill side. It was much easier and yes the condenser
did need cleaning.
Thanks for the advice.
