ML 600 will have 2 sets of ABC terminals. Each terminal supports 300 watts. Split lights between both sets of terminals. Use 12 gauge wire. Maximum 75' length each wire.

This is more than likely what has happened . I am going to guess that your original low voltage trasformer was a 120 volt .6KW. Or 600watt transformer that has one lead from it to the lights . The newer less expensive transformer is also 600 watts , but the new one may have 2 sets of wire terminals on the back( 4 screws ). If this is the case , you have a transformer that is 600 watts output but it has 2 seperate 300 watt outputs that won't run 600 watts from 1 set of output screws . You will have to seperate the lighting load and may have to run an additional low voltage wire to half of your lights . In other words . Put 300 watts of light on 1 set of 12volt output screws and 300 watts on the other se of output screws .that will solve your issue . Good luck and enjoy your lights again . John
