Possible Causes
Burned-out cavity light bulb, failed light socket, open light control relay, faulty door switch controlling light
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Unplug the microwave before replacing the bulb or accessing internal parts.
Bulb replacement:
- Locate the cavity light bulb access panel (often behind a grille or on the side).
- Remove the cover and replace the bulb with the correct type and wattage specified for your Commercial Chef model.
If new bulb does not light:
- Check the bulb socket for corrosion or loose connections.
- Test the door switch that controls the light; replace if defective.
- If switches and bulb are good, the control board's light relay may have failed and the board may need replacement.
