Make a short (~4 inch) jumper cable with Clips on each end. When the GP do not work (and are turned on), short each GP with the jumper until U find a bad one.
For us dufuses, specifically what will I be doing and how will I know when I've found a bad plug?

When I drove 190D/220D/240D cars I always carried the jumper described above in the car. It got me started a few times when a GP burned out.

You should use 12 gage wire and clips heavy enough to carry the GP current.
And how will I use this jumper to start the car?
