Assuming you have checked the main supply panel to be sure that the circuit's breaker has not tripped out, it is possible that a special protection device called GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interruptor) has been fitted between the panel and the outlets. If so, that may need to be reset. It could have tripped when a fault occured in one of the socket outlets, which is why you decided to replace them. If there is a GFCI and it keeps tripping every time you reset it, then there are 2 possibilities: 1) There is something plugged in to one of the outlets, such as an electric kettle, that has a neutral-to-ground short circuit called a "neutral-to-ground fault". Any plugged-in appliance which has a neutral-to-ground fault will always cause the GFCI to trip even though the appliance's own "on-board" on-off switch may be off. So remove all appliances from the outlets and try to reset the GFCI. If all is well, plug in each appliance in turn until you find the one with the neutral-to-ground fault. (Old metal-bodied electric kettles are the worst offenders!) 2) Even if you have replaced the socket outlets there could be a neutral wire touching a ground wire because there is a nick in the insulation. *** (See Note below.) This sometimes happens when the cover is screwed down because the wires are pressed hard against each other to get them into the wall box. The PVC insulation around the wires is very soft so you have to be careful this does not happen. If there was no GFCI protecting the circuit - as in the old days when GFCIs did not exist - it did not matter if a neutral wire touched a ground wire or the metal box itself. But when you have a GFCI protecting a circuit which has that type of fault - probably left over from the days before the house had any GFCIs put in - it will always trip immediately you put power onto the circuit! The reason for that type of neutral-to-ground fault with GFCI-protected circuits is not known to everyone, especially if they have not had to find and fix one before. Speaking from hard experience, neutral-to-ground faults that are in the supply wiring to the socket outlets can be a real pain to find! *** Note: Neutral wires are colored White in USA, Canada and other countries which use similar 60 Hz mains supplies. In Europe and other countries which use 50 Hz mains supplies, Neutral wires are colored Blue for all new work. (Older wiring circuits may still have Black wires for neutral wires.) What is your method for testing the live wires? Just because a wire is a certain color doesn't mean it was installed correctly. Line-to-ground and line-to-neutral are the two tests you should make to read ~120 volts. Buy an inexpensive receptacle tester (about $5) if you're uncertain. It can diagnose several scenarios.

If you do this work yourself, always turn off the powerat the breaker box/fuse panel BEFORE you attempt to do any work AND always use a meter or voltage indicator to insure the circuit is, in fact, de-energized.
If they have been connected to their feed wires correctly, socket outlets should not allow any electric current to pass through when they have been switched off.As always, if you are in doubt about what to do, the best advice anyone should give you is to call a licensed electrician to advise what work is needed.Before you do any work yourself,on electrical circuits, equipment or appliances,always use a test meter to ensure the circuit is, in fact, de-energized.IF YOU ARE NOT ALREADY SURE YOU CAN DO THIS JOBSAFELY AND COMPETENTLYREFER THIS WORK TO QUALIFIED PROFESSIONALS.
A properly installed switch for a wall socket will only interupt the 'hot' leg. The earth (or ground) and the neutral will remain connected.
A disconnected or broken wire along the path somewhere. If you have 5 outlets (in a row) on a breaker and the wire breaks at the 3rd outlet, the first two outlets will still work but the others will not. Rodents are known to gnaw on wires and that can cause the break. Or maybe a wire just came loose from a recepticle.
If the test switch is faulty then there is no convenient way to determine if the GFCI is functioning, and technically, if the test switch is faulty, then as it is a part of the GFCI, the GFCI is faulty and should be replaced.
Renewable resources can still be used up before they can be renewed.
On my 1998 Intrigue I changed the front passenger turn signal bulb and still would not work. I was forced to buy a new socket from the dealer for $36 and they told it was known week link (the socket that is).

Socket outlets and plugs are common terms for mains connectors. They carry mains voltage, normally either 120 volts as in North America or 230 volts as used in most of the world outside the Americas. The socket outlet is also known as a "receptacle" in North America and simply "socket" in the UK. They are the wall mounted connectors used to deliver electrical power to the consumer. The plug is normally the cable mounted connector that mates with the wall mounted socket. Countries and regions have their own type of connector and while they are sometimes compatible, many countries have connectors that are unique to their own country. Because they are such a common item, there are many terms in use for them, some are technically correct while others are wrong but still widely understood. Socket outlets are often referred to as "plug socket" or "wall plug" in the UK. Both are confusing terms although understood by all.

Yes you will get a dry socket you should wait about a week to a week and a half before you smoke
If a washer pump was replaced on a Jeep Wrangler and is still not working the fuses should be checked. The washer switch should also be checked as it could also be causing the pump not to work.
If the trunk light bulb still isn't working, it may need to be replaced. Also, check to see if the problem is a blown fuse.Ê
JCPenney warehouse outlets are still scattered about in various locations across the US. Some locations include Georgia, Virginia, Arizona, and Ohio.
You will only be shocked if you touch the prongs while they are still in the socket or if there is a defect in the cord or plug. If you be sure to touch only the plastic part you should be fine.

You should report this to the phone company. If you still have a warranty on it you can get it replaced. If not then it is probably dead.
