How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the microwave before accessing the lamp.
Access and replacement (if user-accessible on your Wolf model):
- Consult your Wolf manual to locate the lamp access panel (often behind a grille or side panel).
- Remove the cover and gently unscrew or pull out the lamp, depending on type.
- Install a new lamp of the exact type and wattage specified by Wolf.
If the lamp is not accessible or a new lamp does not fix the issue:
- The lamp socket or control relay may be faulty and should be serviced by a technician.
