I would be grateful for some advice about a faulty halogen ceiling spot light in a bathroom. The lights were installed some 2 years ago.
I have a number of low voltage halogen ceiling spot lights in my bathroom. One of them stopped working recently. I replaced the halogen lamp but it still didn’t work. I then pushed the 2 thin cables, which attach to the plug for the halogen bulb, up a bit through the hole in the ceiling and the light worked again. I am sure that this means there is a loose electrical connection somewhere.
Do you think that the entire lighting unit needs to be replaced, i.e. transformer and everything else, or can just the cabling that extends from the transformer to the halogen lamp itself be replaced, i.e. the cabling that hangs down through the hole in the ceiling?
Many thanks for your help with this one.
