I think I have a situation where the wire that's in place has been compromised, but wanted some input on this in case anyone else has had a similar experience.



So it LOOKED like it was a power issue. So I brought out the PoE injectors I used at the shop and...nada. The only thing left is the wire thats in the ground, soaked. We're in our rainy season now, and it rains like crazy every day, so that does seem to make sense. I tested the wire for shorts and continuity and it seems OK, but once you put power on it, nothing gets through.

Sorry that's a long one, but I *think* I can declare this wire NFG. Any input is appreciated! Thanks

Have you checked the wire to see if it has shorted or open? That's where I would start- in either case, I would also connect a TDR and find out how far from the ends it has a problem.

What kind of conduit- metallic, plastic or liquid-tight?
My mechanic told me, "I couldn't repair your brakes, so I made your horn louder."
