Possible Causes

Blown oven bulb, heat-damaged lamp glass cover, corroded lamp holder contacts, faulty light switch on control panel

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Isolate power and allow the oven to cool. Use only oven-rated bulbs.

  • Replace bulb: Unscrew the glass lamp cover inside the oven (use a cloth for grip). Remove the old bulb and fit a new high-temperature oven bulb of the correct wattage and cap type.
  • Check holder: If the new bulb does not work, inspect the lamp holder for corrosion or heat damage. Replace the holder if contacts are burnt.
  • Switch and wiring: If the holder is good, test for voltage at the lamp when the light is switched on (only by a competent person). If no voltage, the light switch or wiring may be faulty and require further diagnosis.
