Thank you times a billion Scott. I just finished wiring two new lines all
the way from one end of
my house, up through the attic, and down into my garage when the hall
lights went out on me
without any breaker in my box flipping off. I replaced the bulbs to no
avail. I then went to home
depot quickly to get new switches before testing if there was power to the
outlets because home
depot was about to close. When I got home, I tested the wires in every
possible way I could and I
couldn't get my volt meter to light up, so I changed the switches. Things
still didn't work. I really
wish I would have read this post, because I spent about 20 minutes up in
my attic trying to see if
maybe I knocked some wires loose while installing the new wires. Finally
I gave in, and searched
and found this thread, mentioning the GFCI's. Yep, the bathroom had a
GFCI that had
tripped......Next time I'll know where to start the diagnosis......once
again, thanks times a billion.

Unfortunately the author was a suicide 4 years ago because you had not
replied to his then 2 year old post to thank him.

Another totally useless piece of crap from the homemoaners hub.

By the way, homemoaners hub steals the content from usnet.
