Just moved house and one set of under cupboard lights aren’t working. Can’t seem to access the lights via the cupboards.

Remove the plinth that the lights are installed into.
They are usually just clipped on the cabinet legs so can be pulled off easily.
 
yes remove the plinth or plinths (also known as kickboards) and shine a light underneath, you might need a mirror at the back to have a gander if it goes upwards behind base units/wall units) you might even find some kind of junction bow or three as well as a transformer/driver.

One handy tip is you can get little rods for threading into awkward places but preceeding rods becomming common a piece or three of MT2 minitrunking take the lid of and use that, you soon get acustomed to its usefullnes and if you do not damage it too much you can still use it as a lid on the trunking.
After a little practice you soon become experienced enogh to become a gynocologist or keyhole surgery consultant too. :giggle:
