- Has the lights just gone out? No heat or hot water? Well if your power loss is localized to one part of your home, it may just be a tripped or triggered breaker in your breaker panel. Don't worry, it's easy to check and reset your breaker. This video will how you how.
My husband passed away. He would always try to show me, and I would learn and always forget. The power went out in our daughter's bedroom. Thank you for this video; it helped us out so much! Blessings to you.
Men in general really love teaching women things. I'm sure he's smiling and probably laughing 😂
9 years later and still very useful information. Had no idea I had to push it all the way off first before you turned it on. Thank you so much. This is something I’ll never forget
Same just happened today and I was like am I stupid I put it off and it snapped to off but turns it has to be pulled as far as it can go then snap it on. I was doing it just kinda wrong
11 years later still helping people God bless you
Agreed I just had to take care of mine. First time home owner and I’m 29. I want too cry with joy. I am learning so much about owning my own place….
Thought this would be a waste of time and I’d have to call someone. Couldn’t be happier to be wrong. 2024 and you’re still helping people. Thank you.
Omg what a life saver. I turned on two heaters, then the electricity went out, I tried fixing it but panicked bc I lost WiFi connection and figured out I made a mistake.
Same
I literally had two space heaters on while our furnace is being repaired and so I’m gussienf I tripped the circuit breaker
😂 omg SAME!!!
@@AustinAOkay yep me too! 😂
same! 😂
Just tried this today in 2024 and works like a charm. Thanks man👍
Thank you for your video!! Saved me $149 for having an electrician coming over to take a look. $149 is what they charge just to have the guy come out and assess the situation.
You just saved me a very expensive visit just to turn the fuse back on. I literally could give you a hug! 😩😂Thank you so much!
This just happened to me, my girl was already nagging talking shit that I don’t know how to fix anything, I told her I’m not an electrician, but let me smoke some weed real quick& see what I can do. I went to UA-cam n Bam 💥 lights back on, thank you so much for this helpful video 👊🏽
@@JayBee-vn3nw lmao
Thank you for this video!! it is now 11 yrs since you posted it, but it helped me out a lot. I didn't even have to run up and down the stairs to figure out if the power was back on because you helped me ID which one was off. I never knew that before!!! Thank you!!! Thank you!!! Thank you!!!!
Thankyou so much!!!
I was home by myself and I had the heater and the vacuum on and all of a sudden the lights in the living room go off and I tried the breakers and it wasn’t working because I wasn’t pulling it all the way back, now my light has returned :)
Thank you so so much!!! As a single mom, I don’t know how to do everything around the house when it breaks and I can’t afford to always call a service man. I had to replace the timer on my dryer and in doing that- I had the back panel off while waiting for new timer to arrive. (The stem broke) as I was drying a load of clothes, I knocked the timer box out of the bracket by accident and sparks flew. When the new timer came, I stripped the melted wire tip and replaced the terminal. Hooked everything up and .. no power! I didn’t check the breaker for a while- but when I did.. I couldn’t get it to stay in the ON position. I followed your directions and now my dryer works! Thank you thank you thank you!!! 😁 EXTREMELY HELPFUL!
Sir, you have just literally rescued me! In my area we are experiencing record-breaking low temps and are about to have a snow storm. I was vacuuming and heard a click noise and my living room lights went out. Did I mention I work from home my desk is in my living room?
Thanks again sir. I'm so glad I don't have to have my nosy landlord come out to my apartment 😅. I would give this video a million likes if I could
9 years later but I am so thankful to find this video, thank you very much sir. I woke up with no heat in the house in yup, overloaded breaker. You save our lives ❤
10 years later still helping people!!! Thanks 🙏🏽
NAHHHH YOU GOATED FOR THIS BRU . I JUST FEEL DUMBFOUNDED LIKE I SHOULD HAVE ALREADY KNOWN THIS .. I will never forget this.
Thanks a lot for this video! I was doing everything EXCEPT for pressing that “Test” button. As soon as i did that, my other half of my room started working! So thanks again!
Thank you so much! I'm home alone and have never learned how to reset the breaker. Was vacuuming my room and tripped it. Started freaking the hell out and cut my finger on the breaker.
I didn’t know what to do after my tv, small heater and iron turned off! My husband was out of town and I pretty much rely on him to handle that stuff. I suspected I tripped the breaker but not sure how to fix. Your video was all I needed to fix - so simple! Thanks so much for sharing this useful information!!
Omg the breaker behind the painting im mindblown i genuinely wasnt expecting that
This was exactly the video I needed !!! The first UA-cam breaker box video I watched. I switched one single switch and brought back most of our house's electrical current. I am heralded a genius and a hero. Thank you ever so much. We didn't have to call anyone. 🤩😁👍 In fact, I prayed and was led straight to your video. That must mean something.
omg!!! you saved me from sleeping a whole night without AC and wifi!!! it is sooo hot out here and i was freaking out!!! thank youuu so much 🌹
This saved my day. I was about to pay someone to come check whats wrong becuz there was no current in the plug socket. Thank you so much!!!!!!
Thank you so much, I was being stupid and used a water flosser and shot it into my bedroom outlet. My fan, whit noise machine, and lamp didn”t turn on , so I snuck outside flipped the switch, I have definitely learned my lesson
If my dad found I would have grounded
OMG you saved my day! I didn't expect it to be that easy! I just fixed my kitchen plugs. Thank you for sharing!
You have no idea how much you've helped with this video!!!!!!!! I kept pushing it on into place, i had no idea it had to be reset by pulling it all the way back. What an Angel you are!!! THANK YOU!! literally saved my evening of celebrating new year's!
Happy New Year!!!❤❤❤
So many of my neighbors run into this same issue as discussed in this video. I am talking about how you need to turn it all the way off before you can turn it back on. Thank you for the concise video.
11 years later and you helped me after hurricane beryl in Houston. Thank you!
Thank you for posting this... I've been trying to reset mine about a dozen times, Lesson learned.
Thank you thank you thank you! Super helpful. You saved me from having to call the leasing office 🙏🏼
THANK YOU!!! Just follow your instructions today, truly a lifesaver!! (Our power trip and you happen to provide a quick and effective solution)
My husband works out of state so I am alone a lot. I knew a little bit about this but I never had one that made me click it SOOO far to the “off” then loud click back to “on”. This one was the case so Thx so very much! And many blessings in Jesus name! Amen 🙏
Thank you soooo muccchhh !! Stay at home Mom of 9.. husband at work and kids tripped breaker.. trying to figure out how to fix. Finding your video was God sent because I prayed God help me .. 😅
Last night an electrical storm tripped a breaker disabling my cpap machine. I played your video and was able to reset the breaker. Thank you so much for posting this video.
Thank you so much ! I was literally having a panic attack trying to figure this out lol.
This video saved us from the heat. I tried resetting the breaker without knowing it had to go all the way back to off. (I thought it was already off) and surprise, it didn’t work. Saw this vid, reset and it worked instantly! Thank you
You good sir are doing God's work. You took me from a beginner with a dilemma to a tech that is as good as it gets. I will pay it forward by making my own video of this incident.
You are a life saver I wanted some cheese toast in my toaster oven weren’t working. Who knew you had to turn it off? not me.😂😂😂😂😂😂
THANK YOU!!!!!!! from a not so merry widow, my husband always did these things. It took me half an hour just to find the fuse box. And, no, I do not feel empowered. I want my husband back. But bless you!!!
Saved me from calling an electrician!! Whew!! Thank you!
Thank You so much for this. My Bathroom switch got tripped but i never noticed that it is not off all the way. Did a reset as you mentioned and it is back working!!!!!!!
Thanks so much. My living room power went out after i was connecting two heater. I was really worry and this video was helpful i followed up your instruction and all done. Thanks a gain for your video.
You are the best I've been spending an hour trying to fix mine
Thanks so much I was totally freaking out but I fixed it all by myself!
Following the instructions in this video, I got power back in my kitchen! Genius!
Thank you! My fridge repair guys flipped my kitchen outlet breaker and I had no idea why it wouldn't flip back to the on position! Thankfully it was Such a simple fix!
TY, TY, TY. Was about to call an electrician. It worked right away.
Something my dad never taught me. Thank you. ⚡️
On my way to reset a couple breakers at my mom's house. Ugly storm blew through and knocked the power out. She got power to only half her house. Thanks so much for the quick info on how to reset it!!
OMG!! You are a genius!! You deserve an Oscar!!!I was looking for an electrician in my area to come out! You literally save me hundreds of dollars
Omgosh you are a lifesaver, I've never been able to reset the breaker and today I'm all alone and sick. Was really worried all the food in our fridge would go bad becuz of me, but thank you a bunch for showing me!
My fridge outlet went off including one other occasionally used outlet for the air fryer. Checked the breaker, one labeled as dining went off so I’m assuming it’s the one used for both fridge and air fryer. Is that problem similar to yours? Not sure if I should follow this video.
@@dodongheinz4527 this video will show you how to tell which of your breakers is tripped and how to reset it. So yes, this video will be good to solve your problem
Thank you, thank you, thank you…I wasn’t turning it all the way off…stress be gone 🤙🏻…Respect…
After 9 year's... this video saves my night & life... thanks
actual lifesaver lmao i went powerless on one wall for over a week until i saw this video !
What a life saver!!! On a Christmas Day!!!! Thank you so much!!
TY. The turning all the way off from the halfway position was the step I was missing.
Life-saver, it was Saturday when my lights did that . I just knew I was going to be in some heat. Phone was on 20percent also. I UA-cam and found this in 5min of panicking so thanx
This 10 year old shor video saved me at least $100 ! Thank you!
Bro idk if u get this but you saved me I was wondering why it didn't reset.. thanks for the key 🗝️.. turn it all the way off then reset it 👌
Thank you bunches.. this video is still helping people like me.
Saved me! Thanks for the tip that a triggered breaker goes to a halfway point and to turn it completely off first. It worked (-:
Thanks it really works didn’t have to call my landlord 😀
Was just about to call an electrician. Thank you so much for teaching how to reset.
Hah hah! So simple. The power went out in my master and guest bedroom because I had a space heater AND a sit under hair dryer plugged into the outlets in my bedroom. Went down to the breaker box to simply turn it back on. Didn't work. So I've been without power for two days- until now. Was headed to Lowe's to try to by "amps" to "install" myself (I know, I know). Lol. Silly me. Thanks for this. Easy fix.
This was so helpful. Thank you very much. I couldn't figure out why my switch kept popping back when I tried to set it and you have solved that mystery for me. My hair isn't blonde, but I am a girl. ha ha ha ha
Mine keeps popping back to and I cannot get it to stay on the on position.
Seriously thank you wtf I turned my kitchen lights on and then everything downstairs went off and I did look at the breaker panel but didn’t know exactly what I was looking at after you explained the part about it being half way I noticed the one that was halfway immediately and did what you said and every single light downstairs came on! Thanks so much
Dude you are a lifesaver. I thought I was going crazy for a minute there
Thank you haha. I'm 16 and tripped a breaker making ramen in the middle of the night. Didn't want to wake my dad up so I did this instead. Appreciation for the skills taught :)
Had two heaters on, and tried all my switches, turns out the one I needed was a bit sticky and needed to be pushed a bit further than normal, thanks a million
Thank you so much. I just do it. You make me can have a nice sleep again--the problem happened in 2am
Very good video … I thought I was going to have to buy a new washer & it was just the breaker 😅❤ thank you so much … good instructions ‼️
Am I the only one that finds that his voice sounds like Toby from The Office ? Great video by the way, thanks a lot ! :)
THANK YOU!!! I was wondering why all of them said On but I found the giggly one and it worked! Thanks!!
Love this dudes videos he deserves a raise. I don’t know how that would work buttttttt
Thank you for your most generous help by sharing your knowledge. It takes a caring selfless person to do so and you're a good example. Best wishes to you 🙏
THANK YOU! Still a useful video in 2024
Oh god thank u so much I got scared first that I broke the button 😂😂 I ran to UA-cam and found this video thanks a lot ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Omg dude your a life saver my power went out in me converted room in my parents garage and I couldnt figure out home to get it to work it was a have trip breaker and I was pushing it too fully on thank you so much lol the power of UA-cam omg lol
The only video on UA-cam that was actually helpful!! Thank you 🙏
Bro omg i thought i was fucking stupid when i tried to ‘turn the switch back on’ like my dad over the phone told me but i looked this up after and realized that he wasn’t explaining it very clearly to me (i have a very hard time with instructions and “turn it all the way off” didn’t click for me) until i was shown (by you) that i did literally have to turn it all the way off
I felt like the smartest man on earth thank you so much❤❤
Just saved me a headache! Thank you Good Sr!
Oh, goodness gracious! A 3:00 video saved my day! Who knew? TY, GEO! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟❤ Subbed
This video is so helpful for us in the middle of the night, thank you so much …
Thank you!! I kept searching for that very simple answer and surprisingly I wasn’t finding anything!!!
Thanks, had no idea what on earth I was doing with it, got my bathroom lights workin again.
I'll admit I was upset watching this at first. I've reset breakers before so I didn't feel you showed anything I didn't already know until I watched until the end.
My problem was that the breaker wasn't fully in the off position, it just looked like it was so it wasn't resetting properly.
Once I saw you push it fully in that position, I did the same thing and it worked. 😉
Thanks you saved me an electrician bill my friend
Omgoshhh💜💜🙌🙌🙌Thank youu sooo much!!! This helped me drastically!! I thought that I had to call an electrician!!🙏🙏🙏💙💙💙A lifesaver
Thanks. Very helpful.
