[DIY] Odd electrical problem

 

Electrical socket that has worked for the better of 7 years mysteriously quits working. 20A duplex socket used for gas convection oven and also to power incand. over the sink light.

Basement is finished but from what I can determine wire goes right back to breaker box from duplex outlet. I can measure 120 VAC at outlet but shop light will not work when plugged in.

I unhooked the wires in the breaker box and also at the duplex outlet and checked for a complete circuit with positive results. I can not find a short to ground when testing the wires.

Anyone have an idea of what is happening?
