Lamp Out On Microwave

The lamp on the underside of my MH2175XSS Whirlpool Microwave went out. I replaced it with the correct bulb (exact type we have used since purchased). It didn't come on. Got another, no go. I ordered and installed the lamp socket and filter (cost: just under 50 bucks-not happy).Still not working.I looked at the schematic / parts list and decided to try the fuse that is listed as part #4393308…took the microwave down, took the hood/cover off and installed the fuse.Stil not working. I guess the only thing left is to replace the control board.What else could it be?Thanks,Jason
