Thanks for that tip Villagetinker. I could only find one GFCI in the garage but it was tripped and when I reset it it fixed part of my problem.

I have a Lantana and the pole light, front bedroom, and lanai all lost power. Resetting the GFCI brought the lanai back to life and I'll check on the pole light tonight, but the front bedroom is still powerless. That makes me think it might be on a different circuit than the lanai and maybe the pole light is too.

But that was a great tip about the GFCI and I know they have a reputation as problem creators and that makes me think the previous owner might have removed them and replaced them with ordinary outlets. Maybe there's still one hidden somewhere and I'll keep looking.

Cheers
