When your Thermador range vent hood lights are not working, start with the light bulb or light assembly, which are the most common causes. Replace the Thermador range vent hood light bulb first. Some models use a complete light assembly instead of a separately sold bulb. If your Thermador range vent hood uses halogen lamps, one or more halogen bulbs may be burned out. You can replace the bulbs or test each one for continuity with a multimeter. If a new bulb does not work, test the light socket for incoming power. A socket that has power but will not illuminate the bulb should be replaced. Next, check the light switch and push button switch for continuity. Replace either switch if it fails the continuity test. Always disconnect power before testing or replacing parts, and use a qualified technician if you are not comfortable working around electrical connections. Enter your Thermador range vent hood model number to find the exact replacement light assembly, bulb, halogen lamp, 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
