shell Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 Hello .. have a light in a neff oven that needs changing and the cover won't budge. Tried everything myself so wondered if anyone had experience and could do it. Tiny job I know!

Dave-cookerman Posted August 25, 2018 Share Posted August 25, 2018 I would suggest taking the door off so that you can get a bit more purchase with the tool.You tube will probably have a video on door removal.Dave.

Sue Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 Or try contacting Neff for advice? Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/201690-need-someone-to-change-an-oven-light/#findComment-1272789 Share on other sites More sharing options...
shell Posted August 26, 2018 Author Share Posted August 26, 2018 Thanks all. Neffs advice is to pay them ?130 to change it so my last resort. praps i'll try the door thing though theres no problem getting purchase. It turns an inch then just sticks .. and no amount of heating the oven/tapping with a hammer/any other youtube suggestions seem to shift it further. Props I'll just live without a light in the oven!

GrahamP Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 I managed to remove the glass cover.First I checked the cost and availability of a replacement.I then carefully tapped it using a piece of softwood and a mallet, increasing the size of the whack until it moved.(When I replaced it I made sure it was still loose when screwed in)Graham Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/201690-need-someone-to-change-an-oven-light/#findComment-1273204 Share on other sites More sharing options...
