Hi, I have a SELV LED light which has stopped working. The model number is KED09W350R06. I've attached some photos. I've tried Googling and for the life of me I don't know how to get this working again. Does anyone here have any ideas?

    The KED09W350R06 model number is for the transformer, not the light fitting. There is a silver label beside it, but unfortunately too blurred to read..

    Ok. I've tried searching for it online but it doesn't seem to be for sale anywhere ☹️ What now?

    Damn. I wonder why people put these dumb fittings in. What's wrong with a standard bulb? House was refurbished in 2017, meaning it has lasted 7 years. It's not like it's even attractive. 🤬

    or another transformer with the same electrical specification.

    LED lights are relatively disposable items though.

    LAP is (I believe) a Screwfix & B&Q own-label. Cheap products not noted for high quality.
    I'd suggest visiting the Screwfix website and look for something similar.

    It could be the power supply that has failed.  Or it could be one of the LEDs has failed.  They usually wire them in series, which means that if one fails, they all go out.
    You would need some knowledge of electronics, and some test gear, to work out which it is.  And then you still need to find parts to repair it.
    These things are made to be disposable.  There's no way an ordinary consumer can fix them.
    If it sticks, force it.
    If it breaks, well it wasn't working right anyway.
