I installed a new ceiling fan with all the breakers off. when I turned on the switch i heard a pop sound.
I tried to put the old ceiling light back and it came on for a little but then it went off. I used by non contact voltage detector and there does not seem to be any power in the ceiling wires (black, white, red, copper) or at the switch. there is power at the outlet below the switch.
I checked the fuse box and turned that off on. the room has power at the outlets but the ceiling does not seem to have power. the wires don't show any signs of being burnt. should I try replacing the light switch?
the receptacle has 2 sets of wires coming in and very crowded hard to determine what is going where.
any thoughts what happened and how to fix?
