Broan Range vent hood lights not working

When a Broan range vent hood lights are not working, the light bulb or complete light assembly is usually the cause. Start by checking whether the bulb is burned out and replace the Broan range vent hood light bulb if needed. Some models use a sealed light assembly instead of a replaceable bulb, so the entire assembly must be replaced. If your vent hood uses halogen lamps, test each halogen lamp for continuity with a multimeter or replace the lamp if you cannot confirm which one failed. Next, check the light socket for incoming voltage. If power reaches the socket but the bulb stays off, replace the socket. A defective light switch or push button switch can also prevent the light from turning on. Disconnect power before testing or replacing electrical parts, and use a multimeter to check each switch for continuity. These steps address common Broan range vent hood light problems, including a vent hood light that is dim, flickering, or completely out. Enter your model number to find the exact replacement part for your specific Broan range vent hood, including the correct light assembly, bulb, socket, or switch.
