Check your connections, it probably doesn’t hook up the wa6 the old one did.

There was only one GFCI but multiple outlets that were daisy chained back to it.
Alternatively stated- you should not ever have more than one GFCI outlet installed on any one circuit.

Make sure you have the correct neutral on the line side of the GFI.
ETA if you have the wrong neutral on the line side the light on the GFI will still light up but it will provide no power
Sure enough, the new outlet is completely swapped for where the line and the loads go. It was my bad for assuming that was standardized.
Thank you all for your help. I just needed reassurance that it was probably my fault! Everything is working great now.

Swap your line and load wires. Another thing is if you accidentally installed the neutral wires on the wrong terminals that might be your problem

Pretty sure this is not true. You can have multiple GFCI outlets on a single circuit. Of course you have to wire them correctly with pigtails and account for line/loads of subsequent outlets protected by each GFCI.

I’ve managed to buy two back to back from Lowes. Both levitons
Took buying a 3 pack to solve it.
Went with a different brand off of Amazon and pleased so far

High. Moved in to new construction in July, just had to replace all the GFCIs because they where faulty. Same electricians did an install about a mile and a half from our place around the same time. They had to do a total replacement as well
