I am using a standard 15 pin VGA cable as an extension cable for a sound system control circuit. As I have read not all of these are straight through on all 15 wires. I have checked several and so far they all have been straight through and have no tied together wires. It is time consuming and a pain to test each and every one of the 15 fully. I know by not fully testing each one it's on me if I damage something, but does anyone know which are the wires that may be tied together so I can just test those specific ones? Thank you to anyone who knows.

I appreciate that, but it just tells me what each wire is. This does show that apparently the typical VGA cable would have each wire as individual, but like I said that I have read where some of the VGA cables are not all straight through and for my use as an extension cable any tied together wires would likely cause a problem and maybe expensive damage. So I need to be sure. Thanks.
