Fresh food light off and gets hot

The "TOP" light in the fresh food dept sometimes goes off or stays off when you open the door,and the TOP light when Off gets hot.the other light [lower] works correctly.
I unpluged it onec and it seemd to fix the problem but now it is doing it again.
tks

It sounds like a motherboard problem. If you pull out the refrigerator it is behind a panel held in by three 1/4 inch screws. The part # is WR55X10552 Tom
