Well, since we had 2 hairdryers and one works fine in the master bath, I cut the cord on the other one and got rid of the goofy end (trip end). Cut an old extension cord plug and and it is running on full blast on high for the last 5 minutes! Weird how the other one will not work in one room but will in the other. The hairdryer I cut originally would not work in either. Mystery almost solved! LOL
