No, the Insignia NS-RTM18BS8 refrigerator does not have a light in the freezer, and there is no available modification kit to add one.

How do I level my insignia model NS – RTM 18SS7. I think it has started to lean and when my icemaker fills up water is just running in the icemaker. I think it’s due to the refrigerator not being level.

To level your Insignia NS-RTM18BS8 refrigerator, rotate the leveling feet. Turn them clockwise to raise the refrigerator and counterclockwise to lower it. Ensuring the refrigerator is level helps the doors close and seal properly, preventing cooling, frost, or moisture issues.
