How to change fluorescent light bulb?

We need to change a fluorescent bulb which has two tubes but only one socket. It fits into a standard bulb socket so it is not to be confused with the standard long cylindrical fluorescent lamp. No matter how I try to remove the bulb (by twisting), it does not want to budge.How to change fluorescent light bulb?
A common problem, it sounds like the pins inside the lampholder have pressed deeply into the solder contacts on the lamp cap, which is now 'locked' from turning by the indents. The best bet is to turn it back and forth without forcing it too much, untill the pins smooth off a 'ramp' and then it will come out. This is caused by the heat build up in the cap and pins and the fact that the lamps last so long that they have more time to indent. If this fails you will have to dismantle the lampholder top to remove it.How to change fluorescent light bulb?
Sounds like a standard energy saving bulb, a combination of the two differering technologies.



A problem can be that the base has come undone between the socket and the actual bulb part. you will have to be carefull and gently (or not sogently) push the bulb into the socket while twisting it.



if it wont work then turn off the electric , wrap the glass in a towel and use more force. The glass may break but from experience it will twist open with a little force.
first turn off the power to the light. get some thick gloves and a cloth turn counter clockwise if it doesn't work you can always break the bulb and use a pair of long pliers. TURN OFF POWER!!!!!!
are you sure you're not just turning it in the wrong direction? There might also be a release button that lets go of the bulb.
it sounds like it is ceased up in the socket ,turn the light out or do it in daylight give the socket a few gentle taps , then try again . If all else fails smash the bulb and use plyers to take it out
Get a man! That's what God made them for.
The glass tubes on these end in plastic base, that fit into sort of a square socket. You don't twist these, there is a small tab on the socket that you push in, and pull the bulb straight out. I hope I'm right without seeing this?
try, after you have turned the power off, push and twist anticlockwise,
