LOW VOLTAGE YARD LIGHT

LOW VOLTAGE YARD LIGHT(S) INOPERATIVE / NEED MAINTENANCE / REPAIRS: 
Low voltage (24 volts or less) are not tested during the visual inspection. If this item was marked the problem must have been obvious. Examples are: broken or missing bulbs or wires or disconnected equipment Before attempting any repairs on any electrical equipment always be certain the electricity to the particular device is shut off. Before attempting any repairs on low voltage equipment be sure the line voltage to the transformer is shut off. The transformer is usually located where the timer or switch is located. Generally everything needed to repair low voltage light systems is available at Home Improvement Stores. The major causes for low voltage light failures are: bulb burnout, wires cut by gardeners, transformer or clock burnout, and poor connections at the light connectors. At the light connector is a spike which is pressed into the wire. This "connection" often will loosen from movement and the particular bulb will no longer burn. Try jiggling the wire where it enters the affected light. If this fails try a different bulb from a working light Contact a Landscape Contractor or Handyman Service for low voltage lighting repairs if you are unable to effect repairs.
