"One loose screw caused several 120 volt outlets to not have power."
You are fortunate that you found this problem. Under the right conditions, "one loose screw" can cause things to get hot enough to start a fire.
And thanks for posting your solution. Hopefully someone else will be able to learn from your experience & solution.
You might consider this a good time to systematically go around and make sure all AC connections are clean and tight. Then can loosen up over time. Kind of a pain to do, in fact, I'm probably overdue myself, but it's a good preventative maintenance step.
Safe Travels!
