Outdoor wiring help

[Steve]

Ok, this one's got me. I have no power to either of my outdoor plugs. Not in the front, not in the back. They are of course outdoor boxes and for the most part are protected from the elements. I went to plug in some lights today and nothing.

I thought it was maybe the outlet itself, but both the front and the back are out. I checked the breaker box and actually flipped all the switches ... nothing. I even went around to see if they were inline with aother internal box that was GFI with the trip-setting that I could change, but I think I hit most of the boxes and I didn't see it.

Any ideas?

They have to have a common junction somewhere. I would try and trace the lines (if you can) and find where they meet and work up stream of the current from there.

found it, there was a box in the garage that was tripped. It was hidden behind a box and I forgot it was there.
