Troubleshooting Under Cabinet Puck Lighting
Background: Katie, a Homeowner from Fairfax VA
[ad#block]Question: My husband installed your typical wired puck style under the cabinet lights 6 mos ago, and they work fine. They are controlled via dimmer/on/off button that is also under our cabinet. However, I bumped the ledge of the cabinet that is adjacent to one of the lights with a dish last night, and ALL the lights went out. I noticed the spring in the bulb(Xenon)broke in the light near the area I bumped , so replaced the bulb (tried 2 different ones), but the lights still do not come on with the dimmer. We’ve also tried unplugging/plugging back in and I checked to be sure none of the other bulbs were burned out. Nothing is working. Any clues? Or, any ideas why when one goes out they all go out? Thanks.
