Hello,

I have this type of lighting:

It is not working anymore. I had problems with it before, and I got it to work one time by cleaning the 2 contact points in each light fixture with a brush. However it's been erratic in the past, sometimes working, and sometimes not. Recently, I can't get it to work at all anymore. I know it's not the light bulbs.

How do I go about finding out what the problem is? Do I need to call an electrician?

Here is a close-up picture of the ceiling fixture a light bulb.

I would welcome any suggestions/opinions.
