Recently I purchased and moved into a 1982 mobile home. Both bathrooms and possibly the dishwasher are on the same 15 amp (I believe that is correct) breaker.
One day when beginning to work on the mobile home my father was flipping the light switch(s) in the 1/2 bath to see what they went too that's when it tripped the breaker. (1 switch to light fixture and 1 to recessed fan in the ceiling)
We checked the breaker and it seemed as though it was bad (spongy wouldn't stay on). We replaced it and still no electricity, but breaker doesn't trip now.
The breaker box says GFI bath on the panel but I do not know if it is still GFI and have found no reset.
I have since discovered the hallway outlet and the outside outlet (on opposite sides of the wall from one another) do not work either.
I have replaced all light fixtures in both bathrooms and checked all junction boxes that I can see for loose or burnt wiring, and found the outside outlet rusted.
Thank you in advance
