Hi Annette, Have you checked your fuse board yet? It sounds like a bulb has blown and tripped out the fuse for the upstairs lights. Depending on your fuse board you would probably see that all the switches except 1 are facing the same direction the 1 that's not would need to be reset. You simply more the switch from off to on and hopefully this will solve your problem. You would then find out that 1 off your bulbs does not work and would need replacing. This would off been the cause of your problem. Good Luck, Darren, Red Security.
