How do I know if a cable is faulty?

The LED lights will indicate pin continuity issues, including open pins, shorts, or swapped wires.

How can I confirm the tester is working before testing my cables?

Connect the Sniffer and Sender directly to each other—this should light up all LEDs. If LED A does not light up, the battery may be low. Replace the 23A 12V battery and test again. If the issue persists, reach out for further troubleshooting.
