If it pops back to the tripped position there s a problem in the wiring or in something that s plugged into the circuit. Pushing the knob and the lift rod down causes the pivot rod to push the stopper up. A gfci that pops will also cause all outlets further down the line on the same circuit to stop working. Plug your charger into other outlets in the room to see if they re working.

In fact it may be outside and may have tripped because someone left an extension cord plugged into it during wet weather. Tripped circuit breakers aren t always apparent. All bathroom outlets in the house don t have power in them. These have a test and reset button on them.

Remove the faceplate of the outlet that is not working after making sure that the circuit is turned off. If you don t see a tripped breaker firmly press every breaker to the off position. Other outlets are ok just the ones in the bathrooms don t work. Some circuits are protected by a gfci ground fault circuit interrupter and you may have noticed this outlet in the kitchen bathroom outdoors or even in the garage.

Other devices or outlets that are tied in with these gfci s look similar to the other plugs in your home. If you want to remove the assembly you may be able to pull it right out. The first thing to do is to unplug everything that is plugged into all the outlets that do not have power. Pulling the knob causes the pivot rod to pull the stopper down.

If you have an electrical outlet in your bathroom or kitchen stop working reset all gfci outlets in that room. Check that all of the wires are properly connected to the outlet and that all pigtailed wires are firmly connected underwire nuts. However there is still light in the bathrooms. Then switch them back on.

On a bathroom sink it s often necessary to remove the retaining nut and extract the pivot rod first. Then reset the designated and hopefully labeled kitchen breaker in the breaker box by turning it off and then on again. Bare copper or green plastic coated wires are ground wires.
