Depending on the construction of the cord, if the continuity is bad, cut the ends off, or take them apart. If one end is bad, the other may not be any better, and who knows, maybe the wire is broken in the middle.
agree. if the continuity check shows a break...and based on the OP's narrative, it will...it doesn't matter
where it is just return it as defective for refund or exchange. if you can't return it then it's up to you if you want to make repairs. odds are good the break is at one end or the other.
