Here is the situation your kid hit the ceiling fan light with a ball the bulb broke away from the metal threads that hold it in place it is dangling from the things inside how do you get the bulb out?

Answer 1

This situation happens quite often. Shut the breaker off that feeds the fixture. Then shut the switch off that feeds the light fixture. Break the dangling bit off with your glove covered hand. If you have needle nose pliers grasp one edge of the shell of the broken bulb and turn it out. Another successful way to do it is with a small piece of stick. Shove it into the broken socket and twist it out just like you were turning out the light bulb. Install a new bulb, turn the breaker back on. turn the switch on and you should have light.

Answer 2

First, turn off the electricity to the ceiling fan to ensure safety. Then carefully remove any remaining glass pieces around the bulb. Use protective gloves and gently unscrew the bulb from the metal threads while supporting its weight. Dispose of the broken bulb properly and replace it with a new one.
