model # is ew30ew6cgs8 electrolux web site says model doesn't exist but that's what inside of oven states as model. I can find correct base, G9, i think 25 watt and 120v. wasn't sure if there was also a temperature rating for oven application?

bulb appears blank, no writing I can see, but looks like this, http://www.bulbstock.com/12597.html

Be sure not to touch the bulb with your bare fingers, the oil left on the bulb will shorten its life, considerably~~~~this is true for all Halogen bulbs.

In most cases, I would replace the bulb with a Xenon bulb, but I do not know how they would work in an oven, for other things they are great, (Xenon), they have 5x the life of a halogen and don't run near as hot.

I would not replace with anything but a halogen in this case, even more so because of the dimming circuitry in Electrolux ovens to get the "theater lighting" effect. Not sure how other bulbs would react to that.

For some reason the Electrolux consumer website search function doesn't like Canadian model numbers (which yours is). Their service site works much better. The Electrolux part number for your bulb is 318946400, which is a G9, 40W, 120v bulb. I suspect at some point they switched from 25W to 40W, and the ovens can take either.

You only need to worry about getting an "appliance bulb" that can handle the high temperatures if it's an incandescent. For halogens, you just need the right base, wattage, and voltage.

Here is a G9 120V 40W bulb on Amazon. One of the reviews says it worked in their Electrolux oven.

Thanks for your help you two. I figured that out about the high temp of halogen and appreciate the confirmation. Trying one today from hardware store. Still paid too much, $7 but will bulk order multiples from online douce next time. I'll report on results.

I didn't find a 40 watt but put in a 30, G9 and it works fine. Still cost me $10 but now I know I can order bulk for ~$2 per.

I just purchased 2 halogen bulbs for the interior of my Electrolux slide in range. I ordered them from the store I purchased my range from...they ordered the bulbs from Electrolux and were embarrassed to tell me the bulbs were $38.66 each. They are not returnable. I just went on the website above regarding the bulbs on Amazon.....75 cents each. How can these appliance companies charge such outrageous prices and expect consumers to be loyal to the brand. I am disgusted with this company.
