Yesterday, I had to replace the bathroom GFI outlet.  I went out to Walmart and for $20 got a new one.  In the box was a diagram of how to wire it up.  At the same time, I was having a problem with my voltage meter, and thought it was the Breaker in the box, as I could not see any electricity in the outlet box.  But strangely enough, once in a while I would get a little tinge of electricity.  But I “thought” I was moving the wires over to the new outlet, according to the cardboard that came with the new outlet.  Wrong!  After several attempts to use the 4 terminals, Norma mentioned there is another paper in the box.  That one had the correct info. To make it work.  So beware of replacing a GF, there is another configuration now in use.  The new GF’s are structured to tandum the other outlets you might add for the features.   Dennis
