I INSTALLED A GFI ON A KITCHEN CIRCUIT AND EVERTHING TESTED FINE. THEN THE HOMEOWNER CALLED AND SAID THAT HE PUSHED THE TEST BUTTON AND COULD NOT GET THE REC. TO RESET. SO HE REPLACED IT WITH A NEW GFI (HOPEFULLY HOOKED UP PROPERLY)
AND IT STILL WILL NOT RESET.BEFORE I HEAD OVER THERE , DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY SUGGESTIONS WHY THIS COULD ALL OF THE SUDDEN BE HAPPENING.

Re: gfci receptacle

There may be a ground fault. Have the down wind receptacles disconnected then retry reset.
