    This a weird one… the owner went through different brands of halogen bulbs made for oven that should be able to withstand temperature of 300 deg. The owner kept the bulb clean, used a kitchen roll paper to insert the bulb into the socket. Yet, it still appears to have short life.

    I ordered a replacement lamp holder in the vain hope that it might resolve the ongoing issue of premature life of halogen bulb. I wonder if the control module is putting too much power down the line or sudden change of temperature via opening and closing the door causing some degree of sensitivity? Any thoughts?

    am wondering if something on the board has blown. its not unusual to have a slow start circuit on these sort of lamps to stop them surging on switch on

    When I replace the bulb holder, I will have a look at the board to see anything unusual.
