    There is a loose white wire, or neutral, someplace. This can be a loose screw, wirenut, or pushed in type connection, and where in the circuit. The only method is to check each outlet box, junction box, etc, looking for the fault.

    Change any push in type to a wirenut connection.

    Start at the last working outlet on the circuit.
