Diagnosing Failing Airport Card Cable

I replaced my airport card cable about 2 years ago. Very recently the connection of my MBP to the wi-fi network in my home has started to present with the same issues that would suggest that the airport card cable needs replacing once again - intermittent connection drops, general lag in browsing. I have ruled out this being my router, modem or ISP, as other devices are not encountering this issue. Thing is, I took apart my macbook and the cable looks fine - no crimps or fraying that I can see.

Are there any more subtle indicators (other than obvious crimps and fraying) that might tell me if the cable is the issue? Understanding that there could be other contributing factors at the hardware level (namely the airport card itself being shot).

Thanks in advance.

Well, after attempting to boot in Safe Mode, my MacBook ceased function altogether - the apple icon and loading bar would display and the progress bar proceed to fill, but the computer would shut down upon completion.

After checking the HD connections and booting into recovery mode, I found my HD was corrupted. Erasing and reverting to a backup appears to have resolved the issue. I have not had any further connectivity issues since the wipe and reversion, so I believe the HD issues were the cause for this as well.

Thank you for your input.

The most common issue on the 2012 13" (you did not tell us your exact model) is a failed or failing hard drive/IR cable.

Boot up in Safe Mode by holding down the Shift key on start up and tell us it the issue persists.

There are two cords connecting the air port to the logic board right? One of them is severed, can I solder is back in or?
