Best Answer

there are several types of attachments depending on the manufactuer some of the common ones: three screws spaced (120 degrees apart) press on a continuous lip that keeps the globe from falling out (these should be hand tight only) just back out the screws about 75% of the way Some globes have slotsin the ring and bumps on the fixture (3 or 4) so that if you rotate the globe at some point the slots will align with the bumps on the fixture frame and release Some fixtures just have spring clips - spring pressure is all that holds the globe on; just pull stright down and the spring pressure will release; try this one last because if the true answer is one of the other solutions, this technique may break the globe

How do you change a light bulb in a ceiling fan?

Most ceiling fans have exposed light bulbs that area easily removed by turning the cool bulb counterclockwise. The replacement bulb for a ceiling fan has a standard base, but the globe is a bit smaller than standard. These smaller bulbs are often stocked with the ceiling fans at your local appliance department or appliance store. Be sure to get the same wattage replacement bulb. Installing the bulb is just like any other lamp bulb. Screw in clockwise.
