Deo W. for Model Number KEBS177WBL-3

The recommended relacement bulb for this unit, listed in the users guide as No 41373175. The replacement bulb I got is much too small for the socket in the back of the oven, which seems to be a standard light bulb socket. . A replacement 40 W appliance bulb will not screw into the socket. It appears that the shoulder of the bulb prevents it from going deep enough to make electical contact, although if I hold the buld in the socket it will light, just won't screw in and stay. A regular bulb will stay and lights o.k. Is it possible that the receiver for the bulb has to be replaced, and if so, how can that be accomplished and where would it be gotten? The diameter of the heavy glass bulb cover is 2 1/4 inches where it screws into the back wall of the oven, on the upper left side. This is very perplexing. Any solution?

Tess, If the light bulbs keep burning out then it would be a good choice to check the voltage to the light socket. If there is over 120 vac then the main pcb would be the issue.

Hello Lou, The glass bulb cover will screw off in a counterclockwise direction. If it is too tight to get unscrewed by hand, you can use a rubber bottle opener, (rubber pad), to add to the traction so it can be removed.
