Possible Causes

Burned-out oven light bulb, Failed light socket, Faulty light relay on control board

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety First: Turn off power or at least switch the breaker off before changing bulbs to avoid shock.

  • Replace bulb: Remove the glass light cover inside the oven (usually twists off). Replace the bulb with the correct high-temperature appliance bulb specified for Café ovens.
  • Inspect socket: If a new bulb does not work, inspect the light socket for corrosion or heat damage. Replace if contacts are burnt or loose.
  • Check door switch: Some models use a door switch to control the light. Test the switch for continuity when the door is opened.
  • Control relay: If the socket and switch are good but the light never comes on (even from the control panel), the light relay on the main control (EOC) may be defective.
