G.T. December 30, 2014 for Model Number MH1160XS My over the range Microrange bulb went out. I replaced with like same wattage but now I do not have the ability to turn the dim or highlight one. (One click for bright light, click again for dim lamp light). Is this because I purchase a "generic" replacement bulb? (Only matched the wattage of the old hood lamp bulb).
1 Answer Hello G.T., You are correct. The factory bulb 8206232A is a dual element, which enables two circuits to operate independently for high and low intensity light settings. A single element bulb will not operate properly. Read More...

Alice H November 07, 2014 for Model Number WMH21275XVB-4 This bulb does not look like the one I need. When mine burnt out and I tried to get it out in order to replace it, the bulb broke away from the base. I know I need to unplug the oven in order to get the base removed, but before I order a new bulb, I want to make sure this is the correct one. It is the bulb for the cook top light. Is there more than one kind?
1 Answer Alice, Yes there are more than one type of cooktop light for your microwave. Based on several parts distributor sites and the manufacturer's parts dept. the correct cooktop light for your microwave is 8206232A / 8206232A . Please remember to remove power to the microwave before you change the bulb. Be careful and try not to damage the light receptacle. Read More...
