How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Unplug the microwave before replacing the lamp.

Steps:

  • 1. Access lamp: Remove the lamp cover (rear, side, or top depending on Vida model).
  • 2. Replace bulb: Install a new microwave-rated bulb of the same type and wattage.
  • 3. Check holder: Ensure the lamp holder contacts are clean and not burned.

If a new bulb does not fix the issue, the lamp circuit on the control board may be faulty and require professional service.
