Hi, I would like to know if the oven needs to come off the wall to replace the Halogen lamp that illuminates the interior? Has anyone ever replaced it. If yes, how difficult, should I take it to a service technician? Thanks, Dennis
It's pretty simple to replace the light without having to remove the oven from the wall...as long as you have an offset phillips
screwdriver...
Of course, be sure to disconnect power to microwave and be sure not
to touch the new halogen bulb with fingers.
STEP-BY-STEP:
First, remove upper vent panel and remove inner filter (same directions
for just replacing inner carbon filter):
Then, remove inner plastic grille (2 screws) and final screw on left
side of metal "air duct" - here's where you'll need the offset screw
driver (and a little patOven Halogen Lamp - 6229660.jpg />
Then, you can gently lift the sheOven Halogen Lamp - 64ca8cc.jpgnel, find the light
housing, squeeze and rOven Halogen Lamp - fb5e58a.jpgce :)
That's it...just replace bulb and reverse for reassembly. Be
sure to keep track of screw locations there are various sizes/lengths
used.

Yes the oven has to come off the wall and if your carefull and tont touch anything BUT the lamp, you should be ok. The Lamp is located inside the outer case easy to get to by taking out the screws around the rear cover close to the edge and screws on the side. good Luck
