Possible Causes

Burned-out cavity bulb, Loose lamp socket, Failed lamp relay on control board, Broken lamp wiring

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the microwave before accessing the lamp.

  • Locate lamp access: On many Ambiano microwaves, the lamp is accessible from the rear or side behind a small metal cover. Remove the screws and cover.
  • Inspect bulb: Check if the filament is broken or the bulb is darkened. Replace with the same type and wattage specified for your model.
  • Check socket and wiring: Ensure the bulb fits snugly in the socket and that wires are not loose or burned.
  • Control issue: If a new bulb does not light but the microwave otherwise works, the lamp relay or control board may be faulty and require replacement.
