GFCI Outlet Not Working 🤷♂️ Can't Reset It
Good video.. The only thing you may think of doing… before you remove the switch plate cover, is to carefully with a razor blade score the sides .. sometimes painters paint will stick to the plate. When you go to remove it…you will not damage the wall. Ask me how I know ….
Thank you! Your tip about having the switch up before pressing the restart button just saved me the hassle of having an electrician come out.
Thank you so much! You saved me having to pay for an electrician call and I learned what the "mystery" switch was for. I really appreciate it 😊
Is a gfci outlet supposed to give power even on test mode?
what's your problem? it doesn't test or reset?! could be wired wrong.
I didn't mark the wire connected to the black screw. Explain what wire is what and where it goes please. White wire isn't neutral? Red wire isn't hot? WTF
typical 3 way wire 2 wires are called travelers (black, red) 1 black is in one switch is Line(power) 1 black on other switch goes to light which is Load
I have 3 outlets in my room two work but the one doesn’t I installed a new outlet & checked to make sure I install the wires correctly but still no power.. what is the issue?
loose wire in the chain(other outlets - visually wiring check) and check with voltmeter
Very good video made it quick
Thank you! This was very frustrating you helped so much!
It worked for me as well! Thank you so much for sharing
Thanks
I have all my outlets and switches in my master room went out except a single light , all of them connected to the same breaker. So the breaker is good. I couldn’t understand how a single light switch works if they all connected together as a daisy chain?
yes that happens, you need to turn off breaker and check wiring of outlets by pulling out each until you discover burned outlet wire that got loose
@@remoteelectrician do i need to check the working light switch? Is it common to have light switches to be part of the chain ? I’d assume my light switch works because it gets the electricity parallel somehow from the source and not impacted by the broken outlet itself.
@@ahs823 yes possible depends how it's wired if it's old house with nob and tube then yeah but you can just hire electrician it's simple quick fix
Omg, thank you so much ❤
THANK YOU SO MUCH, YOU JUST HELP ME & STOPPED ME FROM CALLING MAINTENANCE OVER JUST A SINGLE SWITCH SMH/LOL...I TRULY APPRECIATE YOU🫡
Super helpful! Spent few hours trying to figure what went wrong. Thank you for sharing!
Why you not have a ground wire. I thought it was required.
Built before the code was implemented
What if there wasn’t a ground?
it will still work
What do i do if thr gfci wont reset even after i make sure the braker is on the on position?
read voltage at terminals of gfci
Great diy..!
This vid was perfect for me as I’m “a DUI Guy”. Thank you 👍
I caught that too. Hilarious!!! Your comment had me cracking up.
🤣😭😭💀
My wife and I bought a new home about 2 years ago and the kitchen receptacles worked for most of it, then suddenly the outlets on the switched side of the GFCI stopped working, but the GFCI I still did and was not tripping. So, I thought the GFCI may be faulty. Then, I discovered that the neutral from the panel was wired to the switched side of the GFCI instead of the feed side. Rewired, and checked the rest of the wiring, and everything worked as expected. Always check the wiring, since what you think is the root cause may only be a symptom of the real one.
Joshua place each wire as you take them off of the existing and make sure the line is labeled the same at each position of the old and new and everything else will work
Exactly what I needed. Thank you for this informative video 😃
Thank you so v v v much I’ve struggling for 2 days for this easy fix until I watched ur clip. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Please just come to my house lol. I attempted to replace mine but no lights stay on but it has power. It’s Eaton brand. My outside GCFI quit working on that same wall so that’ll be next project tomorrow. Hopefully it’ll all be working again after that. Idk I’ll see if it holds up.
hire local electrician
I've never met a contractor who didn't think they were better than everyone. 😂
Hello. I hope you can help. So my kitchen gfci is not working. I already checked my circuit breaker to make sure there is power, nothing is tripped. I made sure to reset the outlet but it has no indicator light. So I tested the outlet with a SPERRY plug in & it shows power & the power light comes on but the SPERRY shows a red light indicating a hot/grd reverse. I lived in this house over 6yrs & never had a problem with that gfci. What do you recommend?
hire electrician or fix it by rewiring checking wiring or if needed installing new device
thanks ❤😊
You're video was very helpful, you earned my sub. I'm a newbie Maintenance Tech. Thank you
How to find the line side neutral?
look into box it's a pair a of black and white, if u wire wrong, it simply will not reset or work.
Soooooo helpful thank you!!!!!!
Could you take the load wires off the GFCI in one bathroom that connects the other bathrooms, connect them to the power from the panel, and then individually install GFCI receptacles in the other bathrooms? I have like five outlets running off one GFCI and that GFCI trips too often and too easily.
yes you can. you'd have to connect all to line terminals.
@@remoteelectrician Thank you for the response. It seemed logical to me, but wanted to be sure.
Terrible video
2:13 Golden Nugget
Have gfic front porch not working but lights work on porch. But no lights nor outlets work on back porch . And flood light not working . Can all these be tied to this 1 gfci outlet
old house maybe. but check the breaker first.
Thank you!
What about OPEN HOT WIRE
you have open hot/disconnected/loose hot wire
So my kitchen gfci outlet suddenly stopped working, tried resetting several times but still didn’t work.i did reset the breaker and tried resetting the outlet again but still didn’t work? What could be the cause and fix? Please help .. I thank u in advance 🙏🏼
gfci may need to be replaced
You just helped me a ton. Thank you.
damn thank you so much. I feel so dumb 😅 but again great video thanks
Do baseboard heaters, have those reset buttons too?
not all are resettable but they all have that overheating protection
My switch only has the 2 wires it's connected to. There are no other wires at all like you showed.
yes, that means neutral went straight to the light. and they only dropped switch leg.
@@remoteelectrician so that means I can't add an outlet? Or how would I do it?. Thanks for the reply.
@@xCARPx2014 nope if there's no neutral wire you can't
Can anyone tell me I have no power upstairs in both bedroom and was putting in a gfic outlet outside and test it and I have no power at all breaker are all good please help
since outlets connected in series you have failed wiring in one outlet where power is interrupted. only way is to go one by one to detect the issue.
I have one outlet out in spare bedroom And two outlets in Offices out. The hotwire feed goes to bedroom outlet And its not live. How can i trace The hotwwire feed source of power?
you pull each outlet out in the chain one by one until u can visually discover loose wire.
Pretty helpful stuff, thank you for the video!
THANK YOU, YOU SAVED ME A LOT OF MONEY 💰, GREAT VIDEO 🎉🎉🎉
Great video , saved me from doing it wrong👍
You can find the line by checking the neutrals for continuity with the ground wire. This is faster and safer. If more than one has continuity there is some problem in the wiring that needs to be solved, or the GFCI will trip immediately. This of course will not work on old two wire installations that have no ground.
Why did you skip the step about the upper trim!?! I’m trying to take one off and idk how that trim is held on. Do I just pull on it ? (Upper small ring close to the l ceiling)
the O-ring? - just lift it up it should have clips that hold it up there
@@remoteelectrician yeah I already took it off it clips on from two sides I broke one clip 🙃
My outaide gfci has 4 wires all where connected to line . It worked when i moved in but no longer working. Should it be wired up like you did in video? And also could it be beginning of a circut ?
no, not always. u need to check what else that circuit feed and whether it needs to be gfci or not
