how would you troubleshoot this problem?

thank you in advance.


How about more information? Is this a four way switch set up to one
fixture? Does each switch control a separate fixture? Knowing what is
supposed to happen is important to diagnose the problem.

As Joe indicates, you need to furnish more information for anyone to steer
you in a logical direction. First, determine exactly what is dead. Is it
just the lights controlled by these switches or are there outlets dead as
well. Are these individual light fixtures, and what rooms are they located
in. Sometimes a large center hall fixture will be supplied by a dedicated
circuit if it has lots of lamps on it, and sometimes an entire floor of a
house can be on one circuit if it's small enough
