I turned on the lights in the Master Bathroom and the lights came on for a moment and then shut off (as if a short happened). The RESET button in the wall socket also flipped OFF. I tried resetting the RESET button by pushing it in, but it won't stay in and remains OFF. No power sources are connected in the Master Bathroom. To test I plugged in an electric fan, but the RESET button still won't reset. I assumed that the breaker in the basement must have flipped OFF. The breaker was still ON. I played with it, turning it OFF and ON, but the RESET button in the wall outlet still won't reset. I now assumed the breaker in the basement was bad, so I replaced it. However, the RESET button in the wall outlet still won't reset and stay in when pressed. I'm at a loss now and can't think of anything else to check before calling an electrician. Can the RESET outlet itself go bad?

My attic fan motor quit, so I replace it. After wiring everything back, the thermostat turns the fan ON when the attic temperature is below the setting, and OFF when the attic temperature is above the setting. For example: Attic temp: 90 degrees. Thermostat setting from 50 - 90 degrees, the fan runs Thermostat setting from 90 -120 degrees, the fan is off Shouldn't that be the other way around? BTW, I replaced that thermostat with a new one from Lowes (Air Vent Inc), it behaved the same way. -Jeff
