Anyone know how to remove and install the lightbulb from a weight unit? It's almost impossible without pushing the bulb down and that only worked once.

Rey,
That would depend on the model your removing it from! A little more information on the item your removing it from to know what is being removed from will help, greatly!
As not all of them are removed the same way!

Rey,
Did you happen to glue the boiler front onto the boiler? As that should have been made removable for such things to push the weight out from the back of the boiler from the front and then you would need to dis-lodge the light bulb from the weight and if there is a socket for a small screw-in bulb, to be turned out and a new one turned into its place.
OR is it a wired in bulb?
