Expensive little bulb - $45 for a 40w bulb!!
Disappointed that there is not a cross reference from the microwave's serial number to the model number. I could not read the model number and ended up going to a neighbor who's home was built about the same time as mine and used the model number of his microwave. It worked except the replacement bulb's terminals were at 90 degrees versus straight out - still worked fine. At least the microwave now has a light in it. Thanks PartSelect.

Microwave/Convection Oven Light Bulb
The part came in quickly, even during these CoVid-19 times. Was easy to snap in and screw in place. The hardest part was finding the right replacement bulb for my combination microwave convection oven.

light bulb was great, microwave not so much
Heads up. If you are buying this to replace a bulb in an older model KitchenAid don't do it. Buy a new microwave and burn the old one before you lose your sanity taking that thing apart.

replacing light bulb in microwave
We have a Jenn-Air microwave and oven combination that is installed as a "stack" in a cabinet. The light bulb had burned out, and I read some of the posts on the partselect.com site about how others performed this replacement; ours was a bit different. To replace the microwave light bulb, we had to remove the entire microwave and
... Read more oven stack from the cabinet. There were four anchor screws on the sides (two on each side) of the microwave that were driven in perpendicular to the face of the microwave. There were four more screws that were on the sides of the oven that could be accessed once the oven door was open. With those anchor screws removed, we had to carefully pull the entire microwave / oven stack from the cabinet to reach the top cover of the microwave. We used an old wooden crate to hold the front of the oven and left the back of the oven resting in the cabinet enclosure. This gave enough room to access the screws on the top cover of the microwave, without having to lift the entire stack down to the floor. At this point, I could unplug the microwave power cord, which was plugged in to a socket built into the top of the conventional oven part of the stack. The top cover of the microwave was attached with regular Phillips head screws, so those were easy to remove. Several other instructions indicated I would need a torx or star drive screwdriver, but I did not. Once the screws were removed from the top cover of the microwave, the cover can slide rearward to be removed. However, there are two metal strips that run vertically along the sides of the microwave and at the top of the microwave, these bends over at a right angle over the top of the microwave. The top cover has tabs that sticks up vertically from the cover, so that the bent strips prevents the cover tabs from passing as the cover is slid backwards. The vertical strips have several screws connecting it to the body of the microwave. On one of the vertical strips, I removed the two of these screws closest to the top of the microwave. Then, I gently pushed a wood chisel, because of the bevel angle, between the vertical metal strip and the microwave body. This moved the bent-over portion of the vertical strip far enough away from the microwave that the tab on the top cover cleared the strip, and I could then remove the top cover. With the top cover removed, I could see the old light bulb. It is attached with a push-in electrical connection that was easily pulled off. One Phillips head screwdriver held the old bulb in place towards the rear of the microwave. Towards the front of the microwave, a small plastic post holds the front of the bulb. I removed the screw and pulled out the old bulb. The new bulb fits easily into the same plastic post and screw connection. However, the new bulbs connector prongs are bent at a 90 degree angle to the original bulb. Instead of sticking straight out from the microwave, which was how the old bulb was configured, the new bulb prongs pointed to the right side of the microwave (as viewed from the front). Fortunately, the wiring harness in the microwave that connects to the light bulb had a zip tie that was loose enough to get enough slack for the push-in connector to reach the new bulb's prongs. After the bulb was in, I reversed the steps described above, making sure to leave the chisel in place until the top cover had been secured back in place. Once the chisel was removed from the vertical metal strip, the bent portion again would prevent easy removal of the top cover. I made sure to plug the microwave power cord back into the outlet on the conventional oven, then we slid the entire unit back into the cabinet enclosure, and I put the anchor screws back to hold the stack into the cabinet. Three of us worked on this - mostly to help pull the stack out of the cabinet and to help steady it while the front was resting on the wood crate. This is not a single-person job. It was not terribly difficult, but the number of steps is very tedious. I found a helpful YouTube video "How to uninstall/install a Jenn-Air JMC8127DD/JMC8130DD Microwave Oven" posted by Ali The Handy Man. Being able to see that the microwave and oven stack was connected by a "bridge" (as Ali calls it) was a major help in tackling this. After this, we suspect that Jenn-Air must have not wanted any repairs to their appliances. As I said above, this repair to replace a light bulb seemed unnecessarily tedious.

Microwave Oven Light Burned Out
There were two hard parts for me to work through.
The first was breaking off the two screws that need a special head screwdriver to remove. None of my special special head screwdrivers worked (I have a few), so I used a hammer to force them off.
The second hardest part for me was finding the correct replacement bulb
... Read more on-line. My Amana Microwave is a combo Microwave/Convection type, and it's a strange little bulb - almost tube like.
Once I did find the right bulb on this PartSelect.com website it was a breeze. The part was delivered in just a couple of days (even during this Covid-19 pandemic). Once I had the replacement bulb in hand it barely took 5 minutes to install.
Thanks PartSelect!!

How do replace the old light bulb and where is located thank you
For model number JMC8130DDS
Hello Raul, Thank you for your inquiry. It is located on the interior of the microwave near the thermostat and duct. You would need to remove the top cover of the microwave in order to access the bulb. It should pull out and allow you to insert the new one. Hope this helps!

I have a similar question about how to replace the light bulb. We can barely see it -- now that's blown out -- and can't figure out how to access it as the unit is built into a wall. Any suggestions?
For model number ACM1580AB
Hi Wendy, if you cant remove the top cover you will need to remove it from the wall sadly. Thank you for your question and good luck with your repair!
