The cavity or interior light should come on when the door is opened or the microwave is operating.
If the display is on check or replace the light bulb.
The cavity light bulb is located behind the vent grille at the top front of the microwave oven, under the bulb cover, and is replaceable.
IMPORTANT: Use only an incandescent light bulb as a replacement. Do not use an LED light bulb.
Remove two screws on the top of the vent grille, tilt the grille forward, and lift it out.
Refer to the Use and Care Guide for vent grill removal instructions. If you would like to download or view product literature for your appliance, please visit our Manuals and Literature page.

  • Open bulb cover and replace bulb.
  • Close bulb cover, replace vent grille, and secure with screws at the top of the vent grille.
This part can be ordered at our Purchase Genuine Parts site.

The only part you should need to remove is the cover over the bulb and the dead bulb itself. You can check the manual or with the manufacturer for more help.

They are a painn in the **** to replace the bulb, first make sure you get a bulb made for your microwave they use special bulbs, more that likelly a salesman at home depot or any good hardware store will have a substitute for your oven. There is at leats one and possiblly 2 little trap doors in the bottom, that you need a screwdriver at most to open, have i regular and 1 phillips head handy, open the trap door and the rest you can figure out, of we are going to get into how many techs does it take to change a lightbulb, lol,Good Luck,
PS the hardest part is bending under the microwave

    Sorry the link doesn't work correctly off the page ... but here's the review

    Author's Review
    Just got off the phone today with
    Kitchenaide today. I have the SS version of this product. The light
    bulb burned out in the microwave and it's less than 2 years old. Bottom
    line is that only way to replace it is to have a 'technician' make a
    service call and pull the whole assembly out. Their logic is that they
    don't want the homeowner to electrocute themselves. It's a tiny, little
    $100 light bulb ($60 service call and $25 bulb)no matter how you view
    it and a total scam by the appliance industry. Particularly,
    Kitchenaide. Buyer beware and ask maintenance questions before you buy
    any appliance. Especially Kitchenaide.

How do I replace the lightbulb on the Microwave ? 1454SSS

The cover has to come off the microwave to access the bulb. There are several screws around the back and sides. Remove these and the cover should lift off, revealing the bulb. For your own safety, make sure that the microwave has been unplugged from the outlet for several hours before attempting this repair.

Lightbulb burned out for microwave model # KHMS 1850SSS-0 Kitchen Aid Where can I purchase a replacement? Thank you, Carrie

Most home improvement stores and even some Walmarts/Chain grocery stores/Ace Hardware carry replacements. You will need to remove the cover from the microwave oven on most models unless your bulb is inside a protective cover inside the actual oven. Take the bulb with you when you go to make certain of a proper match. Be certain to unplug the oven if you need to remove the cover in any case.
