Hi I replaced the light switch, fan, and jacuzzi swith in my bathroom of a 2001 Mobile home. When you turn the switch off or on it tripps a breaker. I have checked everything I know to check and ideas of what could be causing this??????????????
Yes, you have a dead short somewhere. Time to call someone who may know more than you ("I have checked everything I know to check").
You have to start at beginning of circuit to the end, checking each connection, staple (if used), metal JB/ground wire contacting hot line, faulty pump or fan, etc...
I assume to only changed the switches? Did you do each one replacing each wire old for new?
"When you turn the switch off or on it tripps a breaker" Which switch does this? All three or only one? I think you are grounding the hot line if switch position is irrelevant to breaker kicking off.
