Is it the cover or the light bulb that isn't coming out? The cover for the 74889 needs to be pushed up and then pull it forward and down. It is hanging by a tab that holds until the angle of the cover is changed to a shallow angle relative to the back of the fridge. The light bulb should unscrew by turning it counterclockwise. If the bulb was previously overtightend, then you may need to use something to improve your grip on the bulb. I sometimes use the plastic jar opener sheets. If the bulb breaks, remove the remainder of the bulb from the socket with pliers (I use needle-nose or similar long straight blade pliers held open to the width of the butlb).
You should unplug the appliance while changing the bulb.
The manual for the Kenmore 74889 is available here:

I hope this helps.
