Lighting, Light Fixtures, Ceiling and Exhaust Fans - Track lighting problem

Thanks in Advance to all that read. I have kitchen track lighting. The other day my circuit breaker tripped (The circuit that uses the kitchen track lighting). I attempted to reset the breaker and use the kitchen lights, but they would not work. I reset the breaker a few more times, and the lights would not work.

The kitchen lights did not die out. They are extremely dim right now (to the point that no light is emitted, and I can barely see them light up), when I tried to switch them on. I also noticed a clicking noise coming from the lights when I switched them on. I'm a electrical rookie and need help. Thanks!

You should start at the junction box for the track light. Check all the wire nuts. At least pull on the wires. It might be a good idea to replace all the wire nuts with new ones. If that is not it are there other lights and/or receptacles on the circuit? They will need to be checked also including switches. Any wires backstabbed at the switches or receptacles need to be moved to the screws.

Normally the first thing to do is check all GFCIs in the kitchen, bathrooms, garage, basement, and outside. That is still a good idea but if you have some voltage to the lights that probably not it. You might make a quick check though.

I think you have developed a very marginal connection that has not quite failed completely. I would try the first part of Rays post to troubleshoot.
