    Look at the wiring on the outlet in question. Make sure all the wires are connected. If they are, pull the 2 outlets, one on either side of the subject outlet and look for a disconnected or loose wire.

    If wires are in quick connects, move to screws

    Check outlet on either side of one not working. See if u have power there and all wires are secure.

    Let us know outcome.
