    Power outage in kitchen
    I recently was replacing an outlet in the half bath next to my kitchen, in the process I reset many breakers in an attempt to find the correct one operating the outlet I was replacing. My problem is now the outlet next to my oven as well as the oven itself have stopped working. I looked in the breaker box and none had tripped; I flipped the main 200Amp switch on and off but still no power... I appreciate any responses, though I have a feeling I will have to wait to cook my pork chops another night :( Thanks for looking!

    Look for a tripped GFI receptacle. I bet that's it.

    Right on, Exactly!. I had no idea the GFI outlet across the room was on the same circuit; I actually discovered it already and logged onto this site to delete my question! But thanks for the quick response. FYI I'm eating my porkchops as I'm typing =)
