How do I change the light bulb in my Magic Chef MCD1311ST
microwave oven? The light has burned out and I can't find out how
to change it. There doesn't appear to be any easy access to it.
If
there's no obvious removable cover over the bulb (and the owner's
manual doesn't address it) some disassembly may be required.
Always unplug a microwave before removing or installing any bulbs.
The
screws you need to remove should be pretty obvious, but a special
driver (such as a T20H type or GTXH20-100) may be needed.
Be sure to put all the screws back in the right holes, since some may be special grounding screws.
Bulbs can be had in most grocery stores, hardware stores, home improvement centers, and big box or department stores.
Many models use halogen lamps. You must not touch the new one with your bare skin, as the oils will shorten the bulb life.

I called Magic chef about this. They say you need to call a tech for that. What a joke. You just have to buy the special screwdriver.
Yes, the light bulb died and we don't have the manual. There's no obvious way to do it. Does anyone know?
