  • Super helpful!

  • Thank you, you saved the day!

  • Thanks a lot your a beast

  • What if the switch is in the off position but when you turn it back on it shows a orange and the lights in those rooms still doesn't come on?

  • What he doesn't tell you is that if you have a breaker box, you need to flip the switch to OFF before you turn in back to ON. The switch will be in the middle position, not OFF.

  • Thank you very much for the video! It helped me today!!!

  • Thank u!! Helped !

  • This helped me a lot, thank you! :)

  • this old school man is trying to help, but makes things more confusing calling breakers " fuses."

  • So, how do you replace the fuse in that circuit breaker?

  • @lustcorp

    in circuit breaker you do not change fuse, you reset it... circuit breakers are made that current flowing through coil inside creates strong enough magnetic field, that can disinage contact, by pulling 1 conductor away from another. there are some cases when short is to strong, and it destroy breaker. in that case call an electrician, as you shouldn't change it by yourself.

    fuse is one that you unscrew. when you change make sure you use the same type and current

  • if it is the power pop`s off the breaker will sit in the middle postion

  • yes those are breakers 

  • THOSE ARE BREAKERS NOT FUSSES, OOOOKKK......

  • EASY TO UNDERSTAND : GOOD JOB :

  • just a small technicality - your at a "breaker" panel, not a "fuse" box.

  • @coolboarder44 He is OLD school leave him alone.....lol.....He reminds me of my high school teacher.

  • Do i have to turn off all the electric on the black box before I do this?

  • Sir, I played your video skeptical that I would ever find an answer. Wtihin 2 minutes of seeing your video my lights were back on. THANK YOU SOO MUCH, you've saved me a ton time and money!!

  • and with the fuses, your method with the lamp works, but it's not the best idea because in the testing process you could be hooking up for example a 30 amp fuse in a 15 amp circuit, and if you leave it mixed up like that and there is ever an overload on a 15 amp circuit protected by a 30 amp fuse (given the load is between 15 and 30 amps), it would start a fire

  • a few mistakes

    1. if turning on the hairdryer causes it to trip, it's more likely an overload or there's a chance it's a short in the hairdryer, not in the house's wiring

    2.how bad of a short it is doesn't effect if it kicks over all the way or not. it depends on the type of breaker, some kick over to "off" if they've tripped, while others only go part of the way, and the reset process is to turn it off and then on

    you don't have to go through trying each one, you can still see it's tripped

  • @trucksoner evrything u have said is completely right!! the orignal post is dangers advice.
