I have had a breaker go bad. I have had a wire burn out where a previous owner did electrical work but did not know what he was doing. (He put in #16 wire for a new outlet for an air conditioner and tied it into an existing circuit!) I have also had light switches and light sockets go bad. I have replaced wall sockets. It could be any number of problems. Get your tester and go to work. If you can't find it, call an electrician.
What else can I help you with?
What alteration would occur if a single pole switch is reconnected to become a master switch?
If a single pole switch is wired to be a master switch, the switch would have to be in the on position for any other control devices to operate. Turning the master switch off would eliminate power to all devices (and/or loads) which it was serving. For example, some homes have a switch to control their outside light. If the outside light has a photo eye (the light will only come on at night), the switch is the master switch. Another example would be the breakers in an electrical panel. Each breaker would be the "master switch" for the circuit it protects. The main breaker in the panel would be the "master switch" for the entire home.
How do you wire an up down switch?
To wire an up-down switch, you would typically connect the power source to one terminal of the switch and the load (such as a motor) to the other terminal. When the switch is in the up position, it sends power to the load to move it in one direction. When the switch is in the down position, it reverses the polarity of the power to the load to move it in the opposite direction. Make sure to follow the wiring diagram provided with the switch to ensure proper installation.
What would cause a ceiling fan's lights and fan to stop working while the small LED on the wall switch still lights when it is switched on?
That led is only showing that there is power to the switch and/or the light and fan fixture. You would have to check the power at the fixture to determine if it is actually in the switched feed or the fan/light assembly.
Can you extend power through a 3 wire switch leg for a half switched outlet to a new switch for a new light?
Yes, you can extend power through the 3-wire switch leg to a new switch for a new light. You would need to connect the hot wire to the common terminal on the existing switch, then extend the hot wire to the new switch, along with the traveler wire. At the new switch, connect the hot wire to the common terminal and the traveler wire to one of the traveler terminals.
What is the remote switch wire for an ATX or BTX power switch connected to?
The remote switch wire for an ATX or BTX power switch is typically connected to the motherboard's front panel header. This header is where you connect various front panel connectors, including the power switch, reset switch, power LED, and HDD LED. The specific pins differ depending on the motherboard model, so it's important to consult the motherboard manual for the correct connection.
Why would the system power on when the power switch in the back is flipped but does not boot until the front power button is pushed?
The switch on the back is the switch for the power supply only. The computer boots from the main power switch on the front. This particular method of switching was introduced with the ATX power supplies.
Why is there no power to your fuel pump fuse 1984 Chevy Celebrity?
I would expect that the power for the fuel pump would be supplied through the ignition switch so I would start there, that is check the ignition switch.
Why is there 120 volts at switched circuit at all times?
There has to be, that is why a switch was installed to stop it,but it must be hot before the switch or there would be no power to do what it was intended for. If you are talking there is power after the switch at all times, the switch is bad and needs to be replaced.

The switch is likely bad. Check the power going in and out of the switch.
What is a logic control power switch?
Sounds like a switch that would only provide power if a condition is met, i.e a lamp timer. I'm not positive though.
How do you get the automatic windows to work on a 2002 Impala The switch will buzz but there is no power going to the other switches or to the motors?
The drivers side switch is the master switch; all power goes thru this switch. Pop it out and test for power; you may just have a bad connection at the switch. I would also check the window lock switch and bypass it to make sure that is not the problem.
How can the power be controlled in a 3-way switch setup where the power is located at the switch?
In a 3-way switch setup where the power is located at the switch, the power can be controlled by connecting the power source to the common terminal of one switch and then connecting the other two terminals of the switch to the travelers of the second switch. This setup allows for the power to be controlled from either switch in the circuit.
