[quote="kevman3d"EDIT : Unless someone can tell me "No stupid, that's NOT how you check for broken tracks!", I used the continuity test on the multimeter to make sure that there was a connection - and nothing appeared to be broken from what all the beeping seemed to indicate... I noted a handful of bared tracks (the green had been scratched off them) - some very tiny, but nothing looked like it had a crack or break in it...[/quote]
One thing when checking tracks is to make sure one end of the track is disconnected from anything. Otherwise is can look like it's connected but it may because there is a connection to the other end through the circuitry via various components rather than the suspect track.
