Hi
I changed out a light fixture. The breaker box was unmarked so I had to flip a few before finding the correct one. After I was done lights in another part of the house aren’t working. All the breakers are in the on position. There is one gfci breaker that I reset. I’m lost on why some lights are not working.


Thanks
 
depending on how the lights are wired, you may have a poor connection at the fitting that you changed, thus losing the supply to lights further down the line. could be hot or neutral. either one would cause lights downstream to not work. you may need the services of a local electrician to sort it out.
