Possible Causes
Burned-out oven light bulb, Faulty door switch, Failed light switch or relay on control board, Loose light socket wiring
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Turn off power before replacing the bulb or accessing wiring.
- Replace bulb: Remove the glass light cover inside the oven (usually twists off). Replace the bulb with the correct high-temperature oven bulb type and wattage.
- Test door switch: If the light still does not work, test the door switch for continuity when pressed. Replace if faulty.
- Check socket: Inspect the light socket for corrosion or loose connections. Tighten or replace as needed.
When to call a technician: If the bulb, switch, and socket are good, the control board light relay may be defective and should be replaced by a technician.
