Bathroom receptacle change

6 years ago

My 3 bathrooms receptacles are on one circuit. I didn’t realize the GFCI in my master protected my downstairs bathroom so I installed a GFCI outlet there a few months ago, so now I believe I have 2 GFCI in a series. I have not had issues.

however, I have a blue painted receptacle in the 3rd bathroom upstairs that I would like to replace. I unknowingly at the time tried a gfci and of course, it tripped and I could never get it to work. i spent hours going up and down the stairs to and from the box to troubleshoot. I gave up on replacing the blue one and replaced it and everything worked just fine.


several months later. now I just want to replace the blue painted outlet with a new white one (non GFCI). New outlet won’t work. Wires are hot but connected won’t work.


thought it might be the second GFCI downstairs so I replaced it with a normal outlet. Now nothing works. i am so frustrated. Thoughts?
