Possible Causes

Burned-out cavity lamp, Faulty lamp holder, Open lamp wiring, Failed lamp relay on control board

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Unplug the microwave before replacing the lamp.

Steps:

  • 1. Access lamp: On many Vida models, the lamp is accessible from the rear or side by removing a small cover. Consult your manual.
  • 2. Replace bulb: Remove the old lamp and install a new one of the same type and wattage specified by Vida (usually a special microwave-rated bulb).
  • 3. Inspect holder: Check the lamp socket for heat damage or corrosion. Replace the holder if contacts are burned.

If a new lamp does not light and E14 remains, the issue may be with the control board lamp relay or wiring, which should be diagnosed by a technician.
