No...Contacting Cuisinart is a waste of time (at least for something as simple as a light bulb lol) .....Cuisinart Customer Service said they do not carry replacement bulbs and No there is not any other supplier to get a replacement bulb. FALSE ! You can get a replacement interior light bulb for the Cuisinart Toaster Oven Air Fryer at Home Depot .....Phillips Appliance,. 120 Volt, 25 Watt. This bulb is for a Microwave but looks exactly like the Cuisinart Oven bulb. Works great also.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I had to do this and wound up removing all of the screws on the back panel about 12 -14 using a Philips head screw driver, and the screw in the center of the panel that requires a very small Allen wrench. You don't have to remove the black plastic vent on the back. Once this has been removed, on the left hand side you will see the glass panel containing the light fixture and the bulb but cant access it. Remove the 4 screws from the inside of the oven and this will release the metal box housing the light fixture. See if you can pull it up the side of the inside (housing of the oven) and the outside (case of the air fryer) . I had to use long handled snips to clip the zip tie holding the wires together to get enough slack to access the bulb. Even then it was kin of tight being able to get the bulb out. It just unscrews, but appeared to have some silicone sealant at the top of the threads. I did get it out but the bulb only lists it as being up to 240v and 25 Watts. I( saw the other post on here saying they bought a Philips Appliance bulb from HomeDepot so I have one of those on order it appears to be a "Philips Appliance T7 Light Bulb: 2800-Kelvin, 25-Watt, Intermediate Base". It hasn't arrived yet so we shall see. Hope this helps someone, but REALLY Cuisinart? All this to get a BULB out to change it? You didn't think or plan that bulbs DO burn out or go bad and put in an easier -to-access port on the inside or outside so NORMAL people can change a bulb? I guess they figure if you can afford the name Cuisinart, you can get you maid or butler to take it down to the local Cuisinart repair shop or just throw it away and get another.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Bulb promptly burnt out. Called Cuininart for advice. They absolutely will not help. After telling them I had removed bulb socket to inquire as to what size bulb, they said they not only would not give me information or say what size bulb, but now the warranty was void. If I haden't messed with it and took it apart, they would have sent me a new oven under warranty.... Really? I think that was B.S. but he insisted. Anyway I ended up replacing bulb myself. It is a pain in the A but I did get it done.... 1000 screws later. I installed a 120V 40 Watt medium based bulb from Home Depot for about 6 dollars. Took me about 2 hours to do.
