    GFCI/outlets not working
    After replacing all outlets and GFCI's in kitchen, one new GFCI does not work, the new outlet next to it does work, and the new GFCI on the other side of it does work. It appears to me that the line/load should be correct if the receptacle next door works? Of the two hot wires going to the GFCI only one is getting current and its currently plugged into the "line" screws. Are they backwards?? In addition although the normal receptacle next to the nonworking GFCI is working three out of the next four normal outlets are not working (receptacles are all new). Thanks for any help

    If you have them wired together as you say you do, they are all wired up the same. Feeding off the previous one.

    Look at the wiring again for loose wires, knicks, breaks etc.. Last resort swap out the GFI. It possible to have a bad one.
