An Amana range vent hood lights are not working, start with the light assembly or light bulb, since a burned-out bulb is the most common cause. Some Amana models use a complete vent hood light assembly rather than a separately replaceable bulb. If your range vent hood uses halogen lamps, one or more lamps may have failed; test each with a multimeter for continuity or replace the bulbs. If a new bulb does not restore the light, test the light socket for incoming power. A powered socket that will not light the bulb is defective and should be replaced. Next, check the vent hood light switch for continuity, followed by the push button switch. Either switch should be replaced if it lacks continuity when activated. Always disconnect power before servicing the range vent hood, and use a multimeter only if you are comfortable testing live voltage or electrical continuity. Enter your Amana range vent hood model number to find the exact replacement light assembly, light bulb, halogen lamp, light socket, light switch, or push button switch for your appliance.

One or more of the halogen lamp bulbs may be burned out. Since it’s very difficult to visually determine if any of the halogen lamps have burned out, use a multimeter to test them for continuity. Alternatively, you can just try replacing the bulbs.
To determine if the light socket is defective, use a multimeter to test the incoming power to the socket. If the light socket has power, but the light bulb isn’t working, replace the light socket.
To determine if the light switch is defective, use a multimeter to test the switch for continuity. If the light switch does not have continuity, replace it.
To determine if the push button switch is defective, use a multimeter to test the switch for continuity. If the push button switch does not have continuity, replace it
