If there was an open neutral wouldn't that show up on the GFI tester?
Likely no it would not,, Wiring is not nearly as simple as that tester. IF the open neutral was on the branch that feeds the outlet you plug the tester into THEN it will show it.. But if it is say a burned neutral in the feeder line to the park outlet.. Very very doubtful the tester can find it.
This is why I had to use dual voltmeters to find the bad neutral in my house.. What's worse.. It need not be OPEN (Mine was not) IT just needs to be poor quality.. (high resistance)
