I’m at at lost with my GFCI outlet. House is new, just got done being built in December 2018. Got my fish tank’s plumbing tested and leak free. Meanwhile while that is going I decided to switch the receptacle out for a GFCI one. I had one already and thought, hey that saves me like $10 and a trip to the store, sweet! Turn off the breaker, take off the old recepticale, it had line and load on it, removed wires one at a time and put them in the same spot on the GFCI. BOOM I was done and took less than 5 min. Turn on the breaker, come inside to push the test button and I don’t hear a pop, although I can see the green light still illuminated . Thought I wired it wrong and did the whole thing again. This time I try to push the reset button and the reset keeps popping with no light illumination this time. Thought the receptical was bad so went and got a 20A one since that’s what the breaker is, wired it up exactly like I had it before and got nothing, reset and test buttons don’t work. Swapped the wiring around, still nothing except no light in the kitchen. But both wires in the line side, got the kitchen light back but no power to the circuit.
I can’t figure out what is going on. The breaker only controls kitchen, laundry and garage lights. Not a clue what I’m doing wrong.
