I'm not electrician

seriously
I have 3 low voltage spots fitted in my bathroom, one of them over the shower is also an extractor fan
A few days ago the bulb in the extractor stopped working and when I removed it, it looked blown. It was a 50w 12v MR16 bulb, with 5.3mm twin prongs - hope that means something.
I replaced the bulb, like for like and it worked for about two hours. Then it stopped.
since then I have replaced like for like and nothing. I have also tried a 35w and a 20w but to no avail. All this time though the other two lights are working fine
I've been in the loft and I think the shower light works off its own transformer. The extractor still seems to work
Any help before I need to call a spark?
