      Kinda what I thought but just not sure to be honest. Thought it was a diode but then something looks off. None are lighting up at all.

            Those are LED chips. So that’s where you light comes from.

            Guess you have to figure out why they are not coming on though.

              Those are SMDs, surface mounted diodes. You’ve got a complete lighting assembly from what I can see. Not sure why they aren’t working. What’s the story here? New fixtures or existing that stopped working?

                  Thank you.... Just dont see where one of them is burned out. Might just not be getting power.... Need to verify that first.

                    Check your power to the light, 110v or some thing else ( transformer).

                        If not getting power, check the GFI in the garage.

                          You have to flip the switch first!

                          Kidding. As others mentioned I’d check incoming power first then start tracing back from there. A tripped GFCI is a good check. Any chance they have a photocell sensor? Any other fixture/outlets not working?

                            Will check the GFCI's... A few of the flood light pairs on the side of the house aren't working as well and they might be tied together. I appreciate the help. Will give it all a good check this week and see if I can find the tripped GFCI.
