    Default Outlet w no power

    Just bought a house and have 2 outlets in the master w no power to them that somehow the inspector missed. I've checked all gfi's and breakers. Checked the wiring to them and even replaced one to see if they were the problem and nothing. Both outlets are on the same wall that's splits the bedroom from bathroom and all bathroom outlets work. Checked power with all switches too and still no power. Any ideas????

    What about the wiring coming off the other outlets which supply them?

    Good connection there?

    Turn every switch on (or opposite of what it is now). I had a receptacle that was wired off of a switch, and it was hooked up to the wrong side. If the receptacle has power after that, turn off the switches one by one to find out which it is.

    Is it a new house? If so may be an outlet covered behind Sheetrock. They shouldn't be on a gfi.
