I guess I’m too Old School, (or just plain old), but I don’t fully understand or trust some of this newer beeping stuff.
Can you do an actual Resistance test of the circuit and report back how many OHMs you find instead of just beep and snorts? Should be infinity or
close to it.

Frankr- New continuity meters have a function on them that emits a beep tone when you have continuity along with a visual reading on the face of the meter. This way you can test for continuity without having to look at the screen. The meter beeps if the ohm reading is below a certain level.  If you hear a beep tone, continuity exists. Great option for testing circuits where you can’t see the meter screen.
