Test for a break in the cable

Test for a potential open circuit by using one multimeter lead to touch one of the prongs on the AC side of power cord. Use the other lead to touch one end of the console side of the power cord.
If there is an adequate electrical connection, the multimeter will continuously beep. A short beep does not mean that there is continuity. If it does not beep the first time, try using the lead to touch the other prong.
Repeat the above directions in step 2 for the other outlet and prong of the power cord.
If the multimeter fails to beep on any of the occasions outlined above, your power cord is open. In other words, you will need to replace the power cable.
