You can purchase a non-contact voltage tester @ HF for $7
and it works
great.

Im not sure if this will work, but plug in the cord and run
the tester along
starting from the outlet. I would believe it it will detect
power until it
hits the bad spot then stop. Someone with better electrical
experience will
correct me if I'm wrong.


We were already covered...as far as testing for the white wire. TYHOOYA
