Question Repairing an S-Video cable

Hello,

I am trying to repair a professional S-Video cable. I replaced a connector on one end as one of the pins had broken however, I'm not able to get continuity to one of the signal pins on the other end.

I have checked the solder joints on the new connector and they check-out fine.

Does anyone know of an easy method to detect where the break might be in the cable before I cut the other connector?

I have tried using a tone injector/tracer (for telecoms. cables) however, as the signal is so strong, it couples onto the cable even if is just placed nearby.

Any advice/tips would be grateful.


P.S. Why are there so many unrelated advertising/religious propaganda posts on this thread? It seems that it is not being moderated regularly?
