Pelican is an unknown quantity at this point
I think what you are seeing is oxidation of the bulb contacts which prevents them from getting power. My first job with low voltage lights I experienced this. You'll have to remove the bulbs, buff the wire contacts lightly with fine sandpaper, then reinstall using dielectric grease which can be found at an auto parts store. This will prevent the oxidation from reoccurring.
