On the Level: A look at how GFCIs can fail - and how they can be fixedPublished 10/03/09
I think one of our GFCIs blew but I'm not sure. Outlets in bathrooms - which also have separate GFCIs on them now - don't work. This happened once before and I reset a tripped GFCI down in the basement at the sump pump and all was fine. This time the trip button was not out and so resetting didn't do anything. I pressed it in anyway but no power was restored to the outlets. I checked the main breaker box and none were tripped. I switched the listed breaker for that circuit off and then back on just in case then reset the non-tripped GFCI unit again. Still nothing. My guess is that the GFCI breaker itself went bad...
