My halogen low voltage track light won't work?

I have a cable type track lighting system that is integrated with 2 can lights. The can lights work, but the track lights do not. I've tried to replace bulbs, no luck. I replaced the low voltage transformer, but no luck. Any suggestions? They are on a 4-way switch with one being a dimmer. It worked for years, but then one day, nothing, just the cans lights worked.

    There are several possibilities that could be causing the problem.

    First, you can start by checking your 4 way switch, if all flowing electrical properly. Try to check by using the AVO-meter, this tool will give you information about the presence or absence of an electrical current and voltage obtained from the measurements.

    Secondly, if it is input and the output electricity of electric switch is exist, then it is likely the second is from wiring. The easiest way checking cable is by examining the ends and connections. Keep using AVO-meter to check the wiring, because it could be just one cable that broke.

    Looks like you need to replace the lighting in indoor and outdoors with LED. Many benefits can be obtained by using LED lighting, recessed LED or LED retrofit kit. Besides the long-life, well just use less electricity compared to Halogen lights. Try it.
