Dead Sections In LED Strings
#2
If you bought the strings from somewhere else, other than Synchrolight, chances are they are designed to work from an AC Transformer. Half of the lights on the string will light on one half cycle and the other half will light on the second half cycle. Check the packaging and the transformer to state they are DC.
If the lights were/are DC supplied, then it seems could be the in-line resistor that has burned out for that particular leg of the circuit (6, 8 or maybe 10 LEDs are out on that leg).
If that's the case, it's not moisture as that would affect the whole circuit, not just a few LEDs on the string. Wear & Tear, or feeding a small number of lights from the 24v Transformer (rated at 5 Amps). Voltage will be a lot higher than 24v if you are only drawing a few mAmps or Amps.
Hope that helps mate
