How to Replace Range Hood Light Bulb

Removing the Bottom Panel and the Filters

Slide the latch so that the air filters are released. Carefully pull them outside and set aside. In case, these filters are too dirty, you should clean them because they do affect functioning and efficiency.

Now unscrew the bottom panel and remove it carefully from the appliance. Please note that when you’re working on the final screw, you must hold the panel and provide support so that it does not fall on your cooking range.

Removing the Bottom and Side Panels

Observe the side panel until you come across wire harness connectors; unplug these. Now release the locking tab to remove the panel. Be careful so that none of the components fall down.

Replacing the Bulb in The Range Hood

Halogen Spot Light Bulb

You should be able to access the light socket by now. Replace the bulb with a newer model. Attach the side panels, bottom panel and filter once again.

If the new bulb works, you’re good to go. In case, it doesn’t, remove all the components again so that you can reach out to the light socket.

Grip the bottom part of the socket and turn it on the right hand side so that it can be released from its position. Push the new socket in place and rotate it until it’s locked.

Reassemble all the components of the range hood again.
