I have a circuit breaker that won't switch back on for my microwave.
It has gone off a couple of times in the past few years, but now it
won't switch on. Do these switches go bad singly, since the rest of
them are fine, or is there some trick besides an electrician to switch
it back on. TIA

sometimes you have to switch them all the way to off before they'll go back
to the on position.

they can go bad. it's pretty easy to change them out if you first power off
the breaker box with the service disconnect breaker.
