Default Stumped on home repair of GFCI circuit all dead after light repair

Most likely you miswired something in the bathroom switches. The fact that
they work means little to any wiring downstream of them. See if the dead
outlets work when the bathroom switches are "on"


Hi RBM,
That was a great suggestion that I hadn't thought of.

However, when I turned on all the lights, the outlets still were dead.

I like the other idea of labeling all the circuits to see if there is a bad
breaker - I'll try that next.

Also, I bought a set of new GCFIs to see if a bad one caused the problem.

Will report back. Please keep debugging ideas. I'd post pictures, but I
don't know of what to post.
