    Hi all

    Does anyone know how to remove the bulb from an Elica Aqua Cooker Hood ?

    Tried twisted it and just pulling it out but it won't budge, searched the net and apparently it just pulls out but it's stuck, anyone any idea ?

    Thanks in advance

    The heat or grease may have caused it to stick. Turn off the mains and wrap a cloth round it in case the glass shatters and give it a good twist. I had the same problem with mine (different brand).

    If it's a G23 compact fluorescent then it pulls straight out - no twisting.

    Well turns out i was wrong, tried pushing it back a bit just now and hey presto the bulb just screwed out !!

    Now do they sell 40w AX4 or something bulbs on ebay ?

    Thanks for the help and replies :)
