How do I get the cover off the grated fixture? I'm afraid I will break it?

I used a screwdriver. It did seem like it was going to break, but nothing broke. I do agree they should be easier to take off.

I had to call customer service, who told me to push in the buttons and rotate. It's hard to get them off but I don't think they'll break

Wear Nitrile gloves for a good grip and make certain the glass is clean and not greasy at all, which if it was greasy would slip easily or fall - not desirable. Next, grip the glass with both hands flat on it and twist the glass to the left about 1/4 turn. Glass dome should then gently come loose into your hands.Simply hand the dome to someone, or set it down carefully, and remove and replace the dead bulb. Test the light for operation before reinstalling the dome, just to prevent having to do the same steps again in case the new bulb has a problem, or the fixture is not getting power for any reason.

Grab the blue scrubber head firmly and pull and rock it. It will come off without breaking as you see how it is installed afterwards just align the socket and press it back on.

I'm unsure, the light comes attached to the fan. So, I'm guessing there would be a way to remove the light fixture, but unsure if there would be a cover to replace were the fixture was! I really do like the fan!

I just replaced a broken lens on my bathroom fan in the fall of 2012 and had to order both the grill and lens just to get a lens. There are no springs. The grill cover and lens are actually two separate parts and are removed in different ways. The lens has a tab on opposite sides equidistant from each corner (only two tabs; not four though). You need to squeeze the sides of the lens gently along the middle of each side and it ought to release. That will reveal the light bulb which will then need to be removed to access the wing nut holding the rest of the grill along with the light fixture itself. Remove the wing nut and the fixture and grill will dangle by two wires. Wiggle the grill around a little and you can then separate it from the fixture which you ought to leave hanging by its wires. To reassemble, reposition the new grill onto the fixture, slide the fixture onto its screw and replace the wing nut, then the light bulb. Finally, squeeze the lens and reseat it.

I wound up changing the whole fixture so I believe I just threw it away. I'm on vacation right now but I'll check when I get home. I do remember the company was difficult to deal with so don't purchase from them. I'll send you mine if I still have it and you can just cover the shipping.

REmove the four screws holding the grey housing to the back. Once it is removed, the bulb will be exposed at the top of the refelctor. One side of the fixture/contacts holding the bulb in place is spring loaded, ( I don't remember which side). When you determine which side is sprung, push the bulb in that direction, then pull the bulb down. To put th enew bulb in, push one end into the springed end of the fixture then set the opposite side. Then replacd the cover.

Hi,The plastic cover arrived totally cracked in half. I was going to return it, but my husband got a hold of it and tried to glue it. That did not work. He went to the "big box store" and found a cover that would fit with the light bulb clip part. It is working fine over the light bulb in the middle of the ceiling. If the light has a wall power switch this works fine. If it has a pull string the fixture will be cock-eyed.

Try prying the top with a screw driver orpry bar. Be careful the plastic edges can be sharp.

Unscrew it! Sometimes they do become difficult to twist because of the proximity to heat and grease buildup. Clean the glass bulb as well as you can and grab something like a rubber grip jar lid remover and push slightly against the bulb and twist.

I just had to replace the bulb yesterday! My cover pulled off very easily...just need to squeeze the cover a bit to one side and pop out the tab that holds it up there...I'd suggest trying a flat screwdriver if it isn't coming open, though be gentle with the screwdriver. Good luck.

use a big pipe wrench and turn it. I had to turn on my electric heater and let it get hot to break it loose.

There's a screw on each side, left and right, undo those and remove the cover. Then, it's just one of those high-intensity, halogen bulbs inside. It's not horribly hard nor super easy, but with the halogen bulb it doesn't need to be done very often. HTH.

Pull down the cover and remove a mounting spring. Then unscrew the screw holding on the light cover. The bulbs are then accessible. The bulbs unscrew with a half-twist. Make sure you get the right kind of bulb. Its base is different from most.

You twist counterclockwise till the tabs are free and release. Line up tabs on new bulb and twist clockwise till it locks in place. Do not pry. You will damage the fixture.

There are two screws on top and opposite each other where the glass meets the metal. The screws require a flat head screwdriver for removal. Once they are removed the lid will lift off enabling access to the bulb area.
