Bulb for Kenmore – Bayonet Small Glass Clear 5/box (Compatible)

A light bulb listed for Kenmore machines. Supplied as a compatible aftermarket part — it is not a manufacturer-original part.

What this part does

The sewing light bulb lights the needle area. Machines use several bases — bayonet (push and twist), screw-in (E12 candelabra or E14) and push-in wedge — in 6 V, 12 V or mains voltage, and the base and voltage both have to match.

Specifications

How to tell if this is the right one

Match the base type and the voltage stated. Fitting a mains bulb in a 12 V socket, or the reverse, will either not light or will fail immediately.

Signs you need this part

No light, or a bulb that flickers.

Fitting it

Unplug the machine and let the old bulb cool. Bayonet: push in and twist counterclockwise. Screw: unscrew. Wedge: pull straight out.

Questions about this part

Which machines does this light bulb fit?

The distributor's listing does not name specific models for this part, so we do not claim a fitment. Compare the specification on this page with the part you are replacing, or send us your machine's model number and we will check.

Can I fit an LED instead?

Yes, if it has the same base and voltage. LED replacements run cooler and last far longer.
