Don't you have a 30-0-30 ammeter? Put some 10ga wire on both ends of it, clip one end to the + terminal of the battery, touch the other end to the exposed tip of your installed gp's. Each one should peg out, then over 3-5 seconds drop in current to about 10-15A and settle in there. If it stays pegged out, the plug is shorted, if you get no current, it's open. Very simple and quick test.
