Wavy line not dashed. But yes I checked that after I got the reading. It has been known to happen.Quote:

And now I have 1.9V for some reason. Between ground and the other three wires. Between the other wires I get nothing.
Is it just the garage that is dead? 1.9V hot to ground means you have a faulty hot wire somewhere. Turn off that breaker and start opening anything that is dead.Quote:

Agreed. Which is why I am laughing. I just keep hoping someone will post up a solution that does not involve me climbing into the attic and digging through the insulation. I do not like crawling around in blown in insulation.[Bang] But I am reasonably certain it is that or hire someone.Quote:
