SOURCE: I have a circuit breaker

After turning off breaker,pull all your plugs and light switches along with the lights, one at a time, looking for loose or broken wires, bad switches or plugs. Not that it could be causing your problem but you may have one or more GFI units in the loop that should be looked at. Most modern wiring layouts have GFI and often use separate circuits and breakers some times different wire sizes for lights and plugs. 15 amp for lights and sometimes 20 amp for plugs depending on usage.. May be wise to have a licensed electrician look at the problem if you exhaust the listed possibilities or do not feel comfortable with any of the procedures. Above all make sure the power is off by testing the wires at each position you are working at. Take care and good luck!

Why did only my lights in bathroom and bedroom go out? Everything else is working properly. It's not the breaker and my outlets work normal

Does your bathroom have a GFCI? if it does then just rest set the test button sometimes it will look ok but its not. Breaker it might be bad but I doubt it that's a 1 out of 100 chance you could have a lose neutral in the switch or the plug Sometimes turning the breaker on and off works too. Hope this helps out

No power in back bedroom

Locate your circuit panel, and check your fuses/circuit breakers.
Maybe breaker tripped?
To reset, remember: All the way to OFF position first, then flip towards ON.

3gfi plugs on a coachman Aurora do not bathroom bedroom work fine.

sometimes, a GFI will be controlled by another GFI. Did you "reset" the GFI ( if there is one ) in the bathroom? You have to find out where
The wires in the dead GFI come from. Electrical panel....circuit breakers. Did you flip each circuit breaker off then on to reset them ?
Do you have an electrical meter ? let me know then we will go from there.

Outlets in bedroom aren't working

Check the breaker box. Also check your GFI plug ins an make sure they did not pop. It will be in the bathroom but the bedroom may be on the same circuit. Push the red rest button. If neither of those things work then I would replace the circuit breaker at the box. First ensure with a meter that you have power at all points.

MY WIFE HIT HER SHOULDER ON THE SWITCH BOARD IN THE BATHROOM AND THE POWER IS GONE in the bedroom and bathroom. Other parts of the house are fine except our bedroom and bathroom. ALL THE MCBS ARE ON. SILL...

Flip each breaker all the way off and then all the way back on.. If that doesn't fix the problem, look for a tripped GFI (go around and press the reset button on any outlets that have the buttons "test" and "reset"). If that still doesn't work, you should probably contact an electrician.

Switch stuck in trip mode

The reason why the breaker stays tripped is a result of a direct short. Unplug every electrical device plugged into an outlet in both rooms and try the breaker. If it stays on, individually start plugging in each device until the breaker trips, that is the defective device. If the breaker stays tripped, start checking wall outlets for short circuits with an ohm meter. If you did not find a short, check your hard wired lamps and appliances for shorts. If you did not find any shorts the only other problem is a shorted pair of wires in the wall or ceiling. You will need to disconnect any hard wired lamps and appliances and check for shorts between individual pairs of hot (black) and neutral (white) then hot and ground. I have a short circuit finder, but you do not need one because the technology is not perfect and you may have to manually check for shorts with a meter anyway which never lies.

I have a circuit breaker that is intermittent

It is unlikely that those temperatures would cause the circuit breaker to shut off and come back on intermittently. (If the breaker trips it has to be reset manually.) It is possible that the breaker is defective internally or that there is a loose connection in the wiring. If you are not knowledgeable about electrical work you should have an electrician check it out for you.

Arc fault breaker trips sporadically

Are there any heaters anywhere in the circuit for this breaker? (ie: bathroom fan w/light and heater) If yes, I would suspect and inspect them first. Also,any type breaker will trip more easily if the electrical connection screws on the breaker are not tight enough...check to make sure that's not the case.

Loses electric

Get a voltage meter and see if you have 110-120volts ac at the outlet. If the lights and/or a bathroom fan have any feedback they could lower the voltage to your TV and it may have a low voltage safety relay that turns off the TV when low voltage is present. This happens in older homes. If this home is older this little problem may be telling you that the wiring in your home is old and in need of replacement. You do not want a fire.
