And if the door is open, we need to know whether the little light
in the refrigerator has burnt out, or if the switch is sticking again.

The complexity of modelling the refrigerator light is one of the
major differences between the Mathworks refrigerator toolbox
and the free cooktave icebox toolbox (which, of course, does not
have a light.)
