As someone suggested, the first outlet in the circuit had cracked and
allowed the pushed in wire to come loose. I replaced the plug but I have to go back and pigtail the outlet. Thanks Sr |

Secondary moral here--don't use the push-in connections. I recommend using the screw terminals on the new one when you do finish the job. |
