Customer Questions and Answers for Lamp-Halogen by Whirlpool

Frank, Yes if your hands are not too large and you have the proper tools, you can replace the cavity light without removing the microwave from the cabinet. You will need to remove the top grille cover and find and carefully remove the socket assembly, then change the bulb, and reverse the procedure. Since this is a halogen bulb, make sure you do not touch the bulb with your fingers, you may need to wear gloves or use a cloth to install the bulb in the socket.
