Oven Light Assemblies - GE Profile PB975 Technical Service Manual

Oven Light Assemblies

Each oven is equipped with two halogen light
assemblies. The light assemblies for the upper oven
are located on the back wall of the oven. The light
assemblies for the lower oven are located on the
ceiling of the oven. Each oven door switch monitors
the position of the oven door and provides this
information to the control board. The control board
operates the light relay located on the control
board. The lights come on when the door is opened
or when the oven is in a cooking cycle. The oven
lights do not come on during self-cleaning or if the
Sabbath feature is set.
Each light assembly consists of a removable light
cover, a light lens with halogen bulb and socket, and
wire harness.
To access the oven light assemblies in the lower
oven and the left side light assembly in the upper
oven, follow method #1. It will be necessary to
follow method #2 to replace the right side light
assembly in the upper oven.
Method #1:
Open the oven door and remove the two ¼-in. hex-
head screws that attach the light assembly to the
oven liner.

The light assembly and wiring can then be pulled
away from the oven liner approximately 2½ inches.
Note
• There is a gasket placed between the light
assembly and the oven cavity. Be sure to install
the gasket to its original location.
• When replacing the light assembly, cut the
wires and splice the new light assembly using
approved heat resistant connectors.
