Hi Experts!
When I moved into my new place the lounge/dining room had downlighters already installed about 8 in total. Recently a couple of them have ceased to work. I replace all the bulbs with 50w 12v bulbs but still no luck, so I did a bit of research and found a little info on how these downlighters work and me being a complete diy numpty couldnt really understand how it all works. I take it I will have to replace transformers etc. I need a little guidance on that.
I usually figure things out pretty quickly when I am able to see what I am doing the main problem I have is how the heck do I get to the transformers? How do I get into the ceiling without pulling the whole thing down because the lounge is on the ground floor. The previous people must have had the lights installed into the ceiling before they put it up. I am very confused.
Should I just spend lots of money that I dont have on an Electrician?? Please so no!
