Electrical – GFCI Protected Outlet Trips with GFCI Outlet Tester, but the outlet lost power

electricalgfcireceptacle

I plugged my GFCI Outlet Tester into a GFCI protected Outlet. Pressing the test button, the outlet was tripped fine. But no matter how I pressed the reset button on the GFCI receptacle. The outlet showed no power. Could someone tell me why I cannot get power anymore from the outlet? Thank you.

Never mind. I thought the GFCI switch in the master bathroom was controlling the outlets in the same room. After some testings, however, I found out that the outlets were actually controlled by a GFCI switch in the guest bathroom. All the devices are working fine. Thank you all for your suggestions. Very much appreciated.
