A) Did you note carefully the actual connections before you disconnected so that you can without fail put back the original as it was? Is there any chance you dislodged a marked wire; that is removed a piece of black tape that wasn't actually holding anything but there to mark a white conductor used as neutral as is allowed on certain cases where there are insufficient wires of the proper color in a standard romex cable? If that is so there's a chance you have the feed hooked to the carrier. ... ERRATUM: the above was intended to read "...used as _other than_ neutral..." -- When I took off the connections on the one fixture, it was white on white, black on black, and ground on ground. I would have noticed if it was mixed. and I didn't even touch the other light. I just don't understand how it could have worked and then all of sudden stop |
