Kitchen Cabinet Lights Not Working

[Snookums]

We have some lights in our kitchen, theres a series of small LEDS in the kick boards and then we have two of the bigger triangle lights under the cabinets above the worktops. They haven't worked since we have been at the house and I've finally decided to get around to fixing them. I popped the kickboards out and followed any wires i could which all look perfectly fine to me. there is two little black boxs and as well as two plugs under there. All of the lights plug into these little black box which i assume are some kind of transformers.

Before i go off buying random things and trying to get them fixed what do you guys think?

Also i suspect they are controlled by a light switch as our kitchen light switch has 3 switches of which only 2 of them do something so i assume this 3rd one is for the cabinet lights.

Ive attached some photos so you guys can see what i am on about.

None of them work? - seems odd if split over multiple drivers and lights maybe a supply issue

Try plugging something low power like a lamp into the socket and see if it goes on and off with the light switch or if any other switch in the kitchen powers it up

under cupboard lights will be powered from somewhere else, maybe transformers above the cupboards most likely - they take 10 or 20w g4 bulbs - might just be blown bulbs

No none of them work. I couldnt see the likeness of them all being blown, I will have a look on top of the cupboards tomorrow to see anything for those.and give a lamp a test under the cupboards as well

Bet theres a switch somewhere.

Bet theres a switch somewhere.

If there is it is well hidden, each of the power sockets have switches on them. As HardwareGeek said tho I'll first try plugging a lamp into them and see if they are atleast getting power first.

Also worth checking the wiring at the switch on the wall is still in place. Might have come loose or been disconnected.
