Dear Tim,
After spraying down the outside of my house yesterday, my outdoor outlets stopped working. We have tried replacing the outlets themselves as welll as the
breaker attached to them, but with no luck. Any ideas?

Jennifer,
They are probably connected to an indoor GFCI outlet. For example, some electricians put the GFCI outlet as required by code in an indoor bathroom, powder room or an obscure outlet in a basement or garage. It could be a GFCI outlet you have never even used in your home. Go find all of them and hit the Reset buttons. See if that doesn't solve the problem.
