Second circuit breaker?

[girlygirl]

I just had the lights go out in the living room and dining room of a 1979 Sheraton Manor . All the rest of the lights in the house work including the heater fan. The odd thing is, I tried the circuit breaker in the back of the house and none of the switches turn off any of the lights not even the two main ones. I have all the paperwork but that one little tidbit! lol I always assumed the circuit breaker in the backyard was the one that worked. Is there another circuit breaker somewhere on this model? Thanks

Check around inside the home for a breaker box.

Yes, inside there is an electrical box in which you will find a set of breakers in..Your big main box outside only has one breaker for the whole house..The others will be for the A/c and maybe a well if you have one..There could also be breakers for out buildings if there are any..

Hi, thanks I have been checking but so far I haven't found one. On the older models are they usually hidden in a closet or behind something? Thanks

Often in a closet or utility area behind a door..Sometimes just in a bedroom with a cover door often behind the entry door..

ok thanks, I'll check again. I'm wondering if someone built over it because I've checked and checked. If anyone does know this model please let me know thanks

If you can see where the wires enter the home from the bottom..The box will be directly straight up...
