The advice given so you so far is good. I'd first look at the dead plug and make sure there isn't power on the screw terminals. The next place id check is the regular plug that is working and make sure there are 2 black and 2 white wires coming off of it. Beyond that you should be calling an electrician, theres a few things they can check which I wouldn't recommend a homeowner doing, plus some specialty testing equipment.
Without running back outside at the moment, I can tell you that the plugs on each side of the house have one white and one black wire. No wires for the load.

It would reason the front would be the same.

PaperBagger I'll buy you pizza and beer if you come check it out for me. I mean, you'll need to pay for your own flights, plus hotel, and then quarantine for two weeks... but I'll guarantee the best burnt Delicio pineapple pizza and warm O'Doull's you've ever had!
