This might be a bit of a stretch, but try to find where that outlet

I forgot to add that if that outside outlet feeds other outlets in the
condo, then obviously you cannot do what I said.
Instead it might be easier to just disconnect the wires from the
outside outlet, but wire nut them together in the box so it can
continue to feed the other outlets.




"...wire nut them together in the box..." ???

That ought to shut things down.


He did say to do that way only IF the outside outlet feeds other outlets.

He meant, remove all the wires from the outside outlet and connect them
black to black, white to white and ground to ground with three wirenuts,
to continue the feed to the other outlets.

You really ought to read, think about, and try to understand the post
before jumping in and trying to be cute, HeyBub.
