Please forgive me if I am behind the curve on this one as I did not
search back to see what other responses may have already been offered.
My first question, is what was there before you installed the fan, and
did that light or whatever, work before you installed the fan?
If there is power at the breaker, then I wonder if you just do not have
the fan wired correctly. Is there a 3 or 4 way switch setup for example
and could you have not got the wiring right or could you have a switch
turned off somewhere?
Have you pulled the fan and checked the wires to see if there is any
power at the fan box?
Could it be that the fan is defective etc.?
My basic feeling is that if the circuit worked before, it should now
except for any issues that you might have created in the box where the
fan is attached.
I had a dead circuit in my house once years ago and it took me most of a
day to track from one outlet to another but I found a bare wire shorting
to the metal outlet box in that case. Of course, the breaker would not
stay on in that case so it was fairly easy to track it.

The one I have needs to be within an inch or two, but it is a cheapie
from Lowes. Can you get any idea how the wires are routed? Coming off
some junction box somewhere? Probably best to start tracing from the
main breaker box.

I spent 8 hrs hanging a ceiling fan only to find out my circuit is
dead. I have another circuit dead in basement as well. I tested all
the breakers and they had power. I,ve had som xp with a toner before.
How far into the wall will it get a signal?
