If the neon light tester is lighting at all, voltage is present. You need to take a voltage reading from line to neutral, and line to ground. If you're reading voltage line to ground but not line to neutral, you have a loose/broken neutral connection somewhere in the circuit.
If you can determine what outlets/lights other than the 5 in question are on that ciecuit, you will need to examine those outlet connections since the problem could be located at a working outlet. Try checking the outlets on that circuit that are physically closest to the non-working devices. Don't forget to check lights & light switches if they are also one the circuit. |
