Lg Microwave LMHM2017ST broken bulb

The Light Bulb is an OEM part for LG microwaves. It provides illumination inside the microwave oven, allowing users to monitor the cooking process and check the condition of the food without opening the door.

Causes of a bad light bulb can include normal wear and tear, electrical surges, or damage due to impact or overheating. Over time, the filament inside the bulb can burn out, or the bulb itself can become loose or disconnected.

Symptoms of a bad light bulb include:

• The microwave interior light not turning on
• Flickering or dimming of the light
• Intermittent lighting during operation

This OEM LG part is also compatible with Sears/Kenmore models.

This replacement lamp socket holds the light bulb and provides a stable electrical connection so your appliance light works reliably. Replace a heat-damaged or loose socket to restore consistent illumination and help prevent flicker, arcing, and premature bulb failure.

• Secures the bulb and connects it to power
• Restores proper interior or work-area lighting
• Addresses flickering, intermittent light, or bulbs failing early from poor contact
• Replaces sockets that are cracked, melted, or discolored

• Disconnect power at the breaker or unplug before servicing
• Allow the area to cool; wear gloves and safety glasses
• Note wire positions and transfer one lead at a time to the new socket
• If servicing a microwave, access only the lamp area per your model instructions; do not open the cabinet—internal components can retain high voltage
