I am installing a new vanity light fixture, but after installation it did not turn on. I reinstalled the old one and now that one doesn't turn on either at that fixture. So I used a multi-meter on the wires and it does not detect any AC voltage – I've checked the breaker and it has not tripped. I am out of ideas of where else or what else to check.
Any ideas?

As it turned out, it was the dimmer which must have been shorted by the new light fixture. While the light fixture is dimmer compatible, I guess the old dimmer wasn't up to the task - and was probably why there was no power getting to the light fixture. bought and installed a new dimmer and now it works!
