My Gh7208xrs-2, Serial # Tr U 31 12188, Hood Lights Only Not Turning On.

Microwave hood light only not turning on about a few weeks ago. On the 3 switch control panel, the fan turns on, the light and night light switches beep and indicate on the LCD display that the lights are on or off. Bulbs have both been replaced and Main power control board with new. Also get no 12volts at the bulb sockets with light switch on. Don't know if this matters or not, but interior Microwave light does work when door is opened.

Have you checked the light holder, if the the bulbs and the control board are still good. Another thing to check is the door latch, Microwave door latches are fitted with several small switches. If any of these components is faulty, the light will fail to turn on.
