How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety First: Unplug the microwave or switch off the breaker.
Steps:
- Replace bulbs: Remove the lens cover under the microwave and replace the bulbs with the correct Frigidaire surface light bulbs (check wattage and base type).
- Check sockets: Inspect sockets for burning or looseness.
- Brightness issue: If only one brightness level works, the control board's dimming circuit or relay may be faulty and require replacement of the main control board.
