You use an ohm meter to check for continuty, low ohm reading, on the center pin between the two ends of the cable. You would then check for continuity between the shield, or outside connector. If both of those are good, you should also check between one of the center pins and the shield to ensure their isn't a short on the cable.

What are the approximations of open circuit and short circuit tests?
Firstly turn of the power before this test...Using a resistance or continuity tester you should get the following results:Short circuit: Very low resistance (nearly 0 ohms) or the bell will ring.Open circuit: Very high resistance (Somewhere in the range of Mega ohms) or the bell will not ring.The reason for this is because and open circuit has a gap in it (which has high resistance).The short circuit has wires that are crossed and so has a really low resistance.
When using an ohmmeter to check the continuity of generator field coil the field coil should?
Read less than 1 ohm
What is digital ic tester?
This Easy to build PIC based IC tester is very easy to make and highly reliable.This IC tester can successfully check the most of the IC's we are using in our normal project constructions such as TTL,74,74F,CMOS 4000 series.This could be very useful for the professionals as well as hobbyist.
What problems can you see in using an AC circuit transistor tester?
farzi....
How do you use multitester?
One of the easiest ways to check for faulty devices and parts, is to use a multi-tester, sometimes called a multi-meter. Testing continuity by using the ohm setting will tell you if the connection through the device is complete or if it has opened and is no longer usable. For instance, if you place one of the test leads on one side of a fuse and the other lead on the other side of the fuse, you should show a short circuit or 0 ohms. If your meter shows infinite resistance, the fuse is bad and should be replaced.
How is a light socket tested for problems?
Since the problem either lies in the light socket or in the power cable diagnosing the problem requires access to the connections. The most easiest method is using a continuity tester which has two electrodes attached to a digital meter.
Circuit continuity is measured using?
Circuit continuity can be tested by using an ohm meter.
How do you test car wiring using a powered circuit tester?
hook the ground wire to a good ground and pierce the wire you want to check with the tester, if it lights up, it has power, if not it doesnt.
How do you check a cable to see if it is grounded electrically?
First check and see if there's any voltage on the cable by using a voltmeter and then use an ohmeter to check for resistance to ground.
How do you know if diamond brooch is real?
By using a Diamond tester on the Diamonds and checking the hallmarks, if in doubt, check it out and take to a jewellers

How do you extract the diagnose code on a check engine light on a 2001 Hyundai with out using a computer?
You can't. You have to have an OBD2 tester/code analyzer.
When using an ohmmeter to check the continuity of generator field coil the field coil should?
Read less than 1 ohm
How do you find the output?
by using tester
