GFCI won't reset
Kitchen GFCI won't reset. Put in a new one and still won't reset. Outlet manages frig, slideout wall outlet, overhead light on slideout and bathroom. Told there might be a short somewhere. Any suggest...

My gfi looked like this behind the wall and still worked!
Wires melted and burnt to a crisp and still providing power.:S
Not good. Curious - why is that a residential type recept. and not an SCD RV type? Someone changed it? The melted wire can't have been terminated properly.
Doesn't matter if it is in a box. The one pictured appears to be in a box.

Wasn't aware of this.
What's the diff? Is it that important?
When I added a new (non-GFCI) 120V socket, I just used the standard household variety from Lowes.
A mobile home/RV receptacle does not require an electrical box. A typical residential/commercial receptacle must be in an electrical box.
