    Have you tested for both power and neutral reachingh the unit? You should be also able to check for power entering the switch box by putting your probe on the incoming black wire and the box, if metal.

    Most folks come to the desk for help without hiring a pro. If you read the posts at AMHD and watch for folks who are either an expert or highly rated you will get the help you need.

    I've got the same problem... the plugs works but I reset the GFCI anyway. The lights and fan still won't turn on. The fan is also connected to the whole house circulation switch but that won't turn it on either.
