Light Bulb - 40W
★★★★★

Part #8206232A
This 40w light bulb is a replacement bulb constructed of glass and metal. It is an easy-to-install electrical part which produces 40w of light. If the bulb won't light up then it may be broken and should be replaced. The bulb attaches directly to an appropriate light socket and has a small screw-in base. To access the exterior light bulb, you will need to remove the panel on the bottom of the microwave using a Phillips screwdriver. If your exterior light bulb has not been changed before, it is probably held in place with some silicone. You will need to cut away this silicone to remove the old bulb. If you cannot access the silicone with a utility knife, it can be removed using dental floss. Once the silicone is removed, simply unscrew the old bulb, and replace it with the new one. Be sure to disconnect the power to the microwave before you begin this repair. This light bulb measures about 1 1/8 inches. We do not recommend using a higher-wattage bulb for this appliance, and can only recommend this specific bulb. If fixing the bulb does not solve your microwave light issue, it's possibly a problem with the socket, which means the socket and/or board will need to be replaced. This can be a more dangerous repair, so consult your user manual or a technician before attempting.

My whirlpooll microwave pad won't unlock. It runs and the lights stay on but turntable doesn't move and no heat
Chris Boyle Profile
Hello and thank you for writing. We suggest to try a hard reset: Go to your breaker box and shut the breakers for your unit off, wait 5 minutes and then turn the breaker to on again. That should hopefully clear this problem. If this does not fix this problem then your diode and turntable motor might be faulty and possibly needs to be replaced. Please see the part links related to this question just beneath this answer. We hope this helps. Please contact us anytime.

There is power to the plug-in, but nothing will operate on the microwave. Is there an internal fuse or something like that that could have been tripped or failed?
Chris Boyle Profile
Hello Scott, thank you for your question. Yes, there is a fuse. That would be PartSelect Number: PS1960938 and is a common cause of that issue. Good luck with your repair.

Purchased new part online. Partselect parts list indicated 3 different part numbers with no other distinction. As a result, I accidentally ordered the wrong color. I had to mail the part back and reorder. Partselect should correct their parts lists to indicate the color of the part.
Once I had the right part, installation was sim ple.
