I ordered the replacement light bulb for my GE microwave (part GEH WB36X10175), but the pins that the wire plugs into are different. In my original bulb, the 2 pins/plugs are about 1/4 inch apart. In the replacement bulb (which looks identical in every other way), the 2 pins/plugs are about 1/2 inch apart, so the pins do not fit into the connector properly. It looks to me like the 2 pins were rotated 180 degrees which makes them further apart now.

Any ideas on how to make it work? I was told that maybe the part changed over the years, and it may not be possible to get the old style bulb...

Thanks,
