Help... Outlet problems
Can anyone help? There was an extension cord that shorted and now the problem is I have 3 lights and 3 outlets that work sometimes and sometimes don't. I have my outdoor outlet and 2 gfi outlets that work. 1 gfi won't reset or test but plug something in it and it has power. Can that gfi have a problem that is causing the others to work on and off?

If you know the path of the circuit, the problem is almost always at either the last working fixture/receptacle or the first non-working one.

Hi, Remove the GFCI receptacle that won’t reset and test the load side to see if there is power there, assuming there a conductors attached to the load side terminals that could be the problem.
