thanks for the help.. I wasn't sure if it was JUST continuity, or if there was a way to check ohm's readings or anything like that... I got it working though, I put new connectors on - stripped more of the center core... Thanks for the help..

I made my own rg59 siamese cable, and for the life of me I can't get this camera to work. I am using some "premium" rg59 compression connectors for video, and your basic cheap crimp on power connectors. The cable length is around 60 feet, so nothing to extreme there. The power seems ok, as I have tested that with a volt meter and I'm getting around 12.6v How do I know if I have a good connection on the bnc connector? Do I simply do a continuity test, or do I check something else? Furthermore, any good instructions out there on how to properly do these compression connectors? Maybe I'm screwing up something.

I plugged the camera into another cable that has a working camera on it, and the camera itself works perfect. I am sure it's the cable. I checked the voltage going through the cable to ensure I crimped it right and it's not shorting. This is the first rg59 cable I've made. I think the problem may be on the video connector of the cable, but not sure how to test that I have a secure and ideal connection.
