I had a quick go at replacing a Fisher and Paykel oven light.

The grill element blocks unscrewing of the bulb in top right hand corner of the oven.

Have you replaced one like this?

What model number? F&P manuals usually cover bulb changing.

No obvious model number. I'm not keen on trawling the dodgy manual sites. I might try Google Lens on it.

Given you need to remove it to replace it, why not jus take it out and see what it is?

My Smeg used a very stand bulb like this: https://www.mitre10.co.nz/shop/tungsram-light-bulb-pilot-oven-25-watt-warm-white/p/378569

I found a few examples on F&P's own site but not one with light in your location. 1 had the common screw in glass in the middle.

Often the grill element drops down at front.

Is it stand alone or built in oven?

Wall oven. I made some progress today. The grill element has a thumbscrew. Undo that and the element swings down. But, not enough to fully unscrew and remove the over light glass.
