FAQ

This bulb is designed for use in a wide range of Whirlpool, KitchenAid, Maytag, JennAir, and Amana over-the-range microwaves that utilize an E17 intermediate base socket.
This bulb replaces OEM part numbers 8206232A, 8206232, 8206232-A, 1890433, 8184863, and W10709923.
Replacing the bulb is a straightforward task that typically takes 5 to 10 minutes. You will generally need a Phillips-head screwdriver to remove the cover panel located on the bottom or side of the microwave unit. Always ensure the microwave is unplugged or the circuit breaker is turned off before beginning.
Microwave bulbs are subject to high heat and frequent vibrations, which can shorten their lifespan. If you notice bulbs burning out prematurely, ensure the microwave's ventilation system is clean and unobstructed, as poor airflow can lead to excessive heat buildup in the bulb cavity.
While some users attempt to switch to LED, we recommend using the specified 125V 40W incandescent bulb. Many microwave sockets are not compatible with the dimming circuitry or the physical size of LED replacements, which can lead to flickering or premature failure of the LED driver.
