I was in my room playing my game when my game system suddenly shut down and
wouldn't turn back on. In fact none of the outlets in my room nor in the
room
next to my bedroom were working. So I went down and checked the breaker box
and all of the breakers were on. So I went and got my bud who knew about
breakers and he came down and flipped the corresponding breaker switch
off and
back on and just like that the outlets were working again. I personally
think
that it was a partially tripped breaker, which could mean it's time to
replace
it, but IDK. What do you think happened?


It was a tripped breaker. They trip to an intermediate position, and
there may be a colored square that is displayed to make it more obvious.
Pushing the breaker ON does not turn it on. You have to turn it all the
way off, then on.
