Replacing a Light Bulb in a GE Microwave Oven JKP67G002

GE, General Electric, manufactures a wide range of appliances, such as refrigerators, freezers, washers, dryers and a variety of ovens. GE microwaves, like the JKP67 models, were part of a Cooking Center that also features a self-cleaning oven. The microwave oven includes an interior light bulb that lights up during the cooking process and when the door is opened. When this bulb burns out, you need a 40-watt home appliance light bulb to replace it.
