How do I open it to change the bulb? I know it came with instructions, but I think I threw them out with the Christmas wrapping and packaging.

the globe is screwed to the base. Just hold the ribbed nut located between the globe and the base and unscrew the globe. You will have access to the bulb.

You just untwist the entire top of the light. The part that does the turning. Good luck! I hope it lasts longer for you than it did me :-)

There is a cardboard Tear Here spot. If you tear the cardboard open there, the plastic clamshell just opens right up and you can lift the bulb out. At least that's how mine were packaged.

You should have a little suctione cup with a handle that came with your light fixture. Suction it to the front of the bulb and turn counter clockwise to remove. Then insert the new one using the suction cup and turn clockwise

There's a screw on each side, left and right, undo those and remove the cover. Then, it's just one of those high-intensity, halogen bulbs inside. It's not horribly hard nor super easy, but with the halogen bulb it doesn't need to be done very often. HTH.

We haven't had to change the bulb but this is probably what you have to do. To take out the glass you remove the four screws, the housing, and the glass and set them aside. The bulb probably has two straight pins so pull it straight out. Put in the new bulb being careful not to touch it with your skin (using latex gloves works best). Then put the glass and housing back on and re-insert the screws.

Unscrew it and replace with a new one. It just takes halogen spotlight bulbs.

When I removed my old burned out bulb the glass pulled out. When I replace it again (I own 2 of these type desklights) I am going to try pulling the "Base" and not the bulb. BTW: One of the suggestions is to use soft cloth when handling the glass part to prevent the oil from your fingers from tainting the light emission. ALSO .... The base is "Crimped" together and it "Will" pull apart. That also happened to me.

The bottom is open and I just tried to change the bulb from the bottom and was able to. It's a tight fit but with small fingers it's do-able. Hope this helps.

First of all don't forget to read you TV manual, it will explain on how to step by step. I had to go by the directions in the manual on how to remove the all one and another page to replace the old bulb with the new one. It took a little while to do. Good Luck!

Not hard to do. If you order a new lamp, it will come with instructions. Basically, it involves removing the bottom front panel (snapped on - I forget if there are screws at this point as well) and then unscrewing the lamp from it's mount. Swap the new lamp out (more involved if you bought a bulb-only replacement) and screw it back in. If you're even a little handy, you won't have any problems.

It's tricky but I did replace a spiral shaped bulb. There is a YouTube video using sticky tape to adapt the use on smaller bulb, but I didn't have to use it.

You need to unscrew the portion of the top where it is tapered. Unscrewing the very top just exposes the bulb.

Turn off the unit (unplug). On the outside of the unit there is a center round plastic piece that holds the bulb. Turn it counterclockwise until it releases and then pull it out. The bulb just pushes in and pulls out of the socket. Wrap the bulb with a clean heavy rag in case the glass would break. Plug in the new bulb - again use a rag as you don't want to get finger oils/any dirt on the bulb. Put the bulb and socket back in, turn clockwise till it stops and plug in.

The outer diffusing plastic around the bulb just pops off. Try grasping it between your fingers near the bottom of the unit and squeezing that plastic shroud , then pull it off. Be careful as the edges are a little sharp. It might need a little wiggling, especially if it's already installed under a cabinet, but you'll get it.To replace the bulb itself, just twist the bulb at either end until the terminals at each end of the bulb line up with the slot at the top of each socket. You'll feel some resistance as the electrical contacts are springs. Then gently raise the bulb out and install a new one in reverse. The outer diffusing plastic around the bulb just pops off.

Pull the cover down and unplug it. There is a screw on the back side holding the back cover on. Remove the back cover and the bulbs are inside of it.
