How to Change the Bulb for a Frigidaire Professional Microwave

When you are using your Frigidaire professional microwave, you can view the food within the unit as it cooks, and a light also comes on every time that you open the microwave door. If the light no longer comes on when you cook food or open the door, then the light bulb has likely burned out. The light bulb for the inside of the microwave is located within the vent area, you can easily replace it using only a screwdriver.
