    DIY - any advice or thoughts on why only my middle outlet is working?

    They are all connected to the same live "hot" wire, but only the outlet connected to the red wire will work. Here is a image and a drawing of the wiring. [Yellow = Hot], tested using multimeter. If anyone has any idea, I would be eternally grateful. Thank you.
