Hotpoint Oven light is out
If your Hotpoint oven light is out, the problem may be a failed oven control board, light assembly, light bulb, halogen lamp, light socket, or light housing. The oven control board supplies voltage to the light and other electrical components, but this is not a common failure. A complete light assembly may need replacement when its individual components are not sold separately. Next, check whether the oven light bulb or halogen lamp has burned out by testing it for continuity with a multimeter or installing it in an identical socket. If the bulb is good, test for power at the light socket or assembly. Power at the socket with no light indicates a defective light socket, while power reaching the assembly can point to a faulty light housing. If the socket has no power, test the light switch for continuity before suspecting the control board. These steps can help diagnose an oven light not working, an oven light burned out, or an oven light out condition without replacing good parts. Enter your Hotpoint range, stove, or oven model number to find the exact replacement part for your appliance.
01 - Hotpoint Range/Stove/Oven Oven Control Board
The oven control board is used to send voltage to nearly all of the oven's electrical components including the lights. If the control board is defective, it may be unable to send voltage to the light bulb or light board, although this is not a common problem. You can use a multimeter to determine if power is reaching the light socket or light assembly. If power is not reaching the light socket or light assembly and the light switch tests positive for electrical continuity when tested with a multimeter, then the control board is likely defective and will need to be replaced.

06 - Hotpoint Range/Stove/Oven Light Housing
If you've determined the light bulb has not burned out or the light board appears to be functioning normally, it's possible that the light housing the bulb or board is installed in is faulty. Use a multimeter to determine if power is reaching the light socket or light assembly. If power is reaching the socket or assembly, then it's likely the light housing is malfunctioning and will need to be replaced.
