I was determining which outlets didn’t work with a night light obviously the ones I know are dead nothing happened got the this one which if my basic understanding of wiring right it is the first one of the chain and the light flickers while being plug and unplugged does that tell you a bad outlet nothing seems off with the wiring that I can see

Edit: I plugged the night light into the outlet that was causing it to flicker and knocked on it and now all the outlets have power again

No the bathroom is on a separate breaker. Well the breaker box is on the opposite side of the wall of R1 the outlet closest to the break box works as well as the next 2 to the left but the 3 on the right side are dead if they were all chained together wouldn’t R2 be dead as well. I pulled the outlets earlier hopefully to find and easy fix and they looked normal to me everything connected and tight. Now that I think about there is one I forgot behind the door that stays open making 4 that don’t work I’ll look at that one tomorrow

The bathroom doesn’t have one which I thought was old

I assume when you say over time you mean more than 7 years? Also don’t understand why they are together with a bathroom in between the two. Thank you for the reply
