发帖数: 140 | 5 Yes, I did, but the problem is that the switch is in the middle and can not
be flipped to either OFF or ON.

it, then turn it to ON. If the breaker is damaged, then you need to find an
electrician to replace it.

On the other hand it is not hard to replace the bad circuit breaker yourself.
You can shut off the panel (the big main switch on the top by itself)
Open the panel by removing the screw on the edge (usually 4 or 6 screw)
After you take the panel off, the bad circuit break can be snaped out.
Take it to home depot or lowes and get an exact same one (same Amp rating), it should say on the bad breaker.
There are several different styles of the elec panel and breaker in use, make sure you bring the bad one to store, other wise you may have a hard time describe it to them.
Snap the new one back in in the rails, put the panel cover back, you should be fixed.
If you can not understand or follow what I am saying here, hire an electrician.

今天回家，意外的发现switch可以拨到off的位置了，然后我又拨回到on的位置。
然后主卧室的电就来了。 |
