WPW10571723 Range Hood Light Bulb

Key specifications

If you need to restore light inside an oven or range hood, this replacement bulb is aimed at that specific repair rather than general-purpose lighting. It’s a 40W, 120V halogen bulb with a G9 base, sold as a four-pack. Those details matter: matching the base and electrical rating is just as important as finding a part number that fits your appliance.

The listing names WPW10571723 and several related part numbers, including PS8260198, AP6023129, and PS11756469. The manufacturer and full model coverage aren’t established here, so treat the compatibility list as a starting point, not a guarantee. Check your appliance’s model and existing bulb before ordering, the product details note that not every compatible model is listed.

Who it’s for

This is for someone replacing a failed appliance light, whether the old bulb has gone dim, stopped working, or burned out. It suits you if your oven or hood uses a 40W G9 halogen bulb and the replacement part matches your appliance. For example, if the cooking area goes dark when you open the oven, swapping the bulb may bring back the built-in lighting without changing the appliance.

It’s a narrower purchase than a universal household bulb, and that’s useful when you know the fitting and replacement part you need. Not the best choice if your appliance calls for a different base, wattage, or bulb type, the product name alone isn’t enough to confirm fit across every Whirlpool model. The compatibility references include ranges, hoods, and some other appliances, but you’ll need to match your own model rather than assume the broad list covers it.

What’s included

The listing specifies four halogen bulbs. That gives you spares for another replacement, though it doesn’t mean every bulb will be needed at once. The bulb is described as using explosion-resistant glass and a tungsten filament. Those are product claims, not a substitute for checking the required bulb specification in your appliance documentation.

For installation, the instructions describe removing the light cover with a screwdriver, taking out the old bulb, and inserting the replacement. Access and cover design can vary by appliance, so use the appliance’s own instructions if the listed steps don’t match what you see. Make sure the appliance is off and cool before handling its light.

Practical doubts

Is this an LED bulb? No. The listing identifies it as a halogen bulb with a G9 base.

Does the four-pack mean all four bulbs fit my appliance? The package count is four, but fit depends on the appliance’s required bulb and model. Confirm those details before installing any of them.

Will it fit every appliance named by the seller? The model list is explicitly incomplete. Check the exact appliance model and part requirement, the compatibility references alone don’t confirm every variation.

When it makes sense

This replacement makes sense when you’ve confirmed that your appliance takes a 40W, 120V G9 halogen bulb and the part references line up with the required replacement. On the spec sheet, its clearest advantage is straightforward: four bulbs for a specific appliance-lighting repair, rather than a multipurpose bulb for lamps around the home. If you’re still identifying the correct fitting or your appliance requires another bulb type, pause and verify that first. The part number and socket match should lead the decision, not the broad compatibility wording.
