Possible Causes

Burned-out oven bulb, Faulty light socket, Defective door switch, Failed relay on main PCB

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn OFF power at the breaker before replacing the bulb or touching the socket.

Bulb replacement:

  • Remove the glass light cover inside the oven (usually twists off).
  • Unscrew the bulb and inspect the filament; replace with the correct Samsung-rated oven bulb (high-temperature rated).

If new bulb does not work:

  • Inspect the socket for corrosion or burning; replace the light socket if damaged.
  • Check the door switch operation (light should toggle when pressing the switch). A faulty switch or control board may require professional service.
