LED 12v Not at Full Brightness

Home Improvement Asked by user116813 on November 4, 2020

I just replaced 12v halogen with 12v Led bulbs on two separate recessed lighting circuits. One has 9 lights, one has 5. On each set of lights, a single bulb is not coming on at the brightness of the others, it’s significantly less bright.

I’ve swapped bulbs so I know it’s the specific can location, not the bulb.

I also measured voltage at both the problem locations at it’s showing 12v.

These are not on a dimmer.

What should I check next?

Thanks,

Thanks all. This did turn out to be an issue with some of the connections. I pulled the cans out of the ceiling (no attic access) and checked the wiring. On both of the troubled cans, the connection between the socket wires and the 12v lines coming out of the transformer looked burned out. These were factory connections, not wire nuts. I cut those out, reconnected the lines and all was good. Thanks again.
