I have accessed the lamp compartment but do not understand the mechanics of lamp unit removal. I dont want to pull or twist the module incorrectly and compound the problem of lamp bulb replacement. Advise please on lamp removal.

You just used a needle nose plier to pull the lamp by its' connection prongs straight out (after unplugging the back of the lamp) and it popped right out. New one went in the same way. Pulled it straight out. No problem.
