I have track lighting in my kitchen. Currently 3 bulbs are working and 1 is not. I tried replacing the burned out bulb with a new one but the 1 light is still not working. Any suggestions/help will be greatly appreciated.

Verify you are not installing 180 degrees out.
Look at the contacts and see if they are bent/burnt. You should have 2 contacts on one side, and 1 contact on the other side of the track.
Try a continuity test to be sure the problem is not within the fixture, also check bulb contacts.

I am not sure what you mean by installing 180 degrees out. I will check out your other suggestions when I return home today. Thanks.
