Outlet has two wires one yellow and one white. Non_contact voltage detector
Show no current either wires. Rest of the circuit is fine. This outlet maybe at the end of the circuit . What could be the problem.

Bad connection at the last working outlet on that circuit.

Please reduce the size of you photo. Makes reading post to difficult.

I really appreciate it. It is just two wires. White and Yellow with no current in either of them. If it had current I image the yellow white would be hot. Wondered why they
Used yellow years ago?

Looks like yellow with black stripe, that would be the hot.
