Hello Eva, If the model number is actually MMV4206FW0 you will need to order 8206232A for the bulb at the bottom of the unit and W10210871 for the socket. If you actually need the light inside the cooking compartment, you will need 8206232A for the bulb and WPW10210878 for the socket.

Hello John, the light bulb 8206232A listed is correct as per the manufacturer, if the socket feels too large likely the threaded insert of the socket has come out with the old bulb, if that is the case a new socket is part W10210871.
