ELECTROLUX OVEN - EOB53001X - Oven Light Won't come On

[badpork]

Everything else is fine with the oven it cooks and grills fine and the bulb definitely works but it will not come on in the oven? It has gone through a couple of bulbs in the past 2 months.

Is there some sort of fuse stopping the light from coming on? Anything else I can check?

Don't know the cooker, but is the light a switch on the control panel or auto on the door?.
The switch could have failed, a wire could have become brittle & broke.

The light works on the right hand knob which selects fan oven, grill, defrost etc

If you know the bulb is good, then its the contacts in the bulb holder, the switch or the wiring at the switch or bulb.
If you have replaced a bulb then you may have F***ck the contacts in the bulb holder, you will need a meter to check it.
If you installed the oven, then get it out of the housing & check the swich wiring, it shouldn't be that difficult to do.
