I have one of the TTL cables from DSLR Kit and I've been using it with both a TTL and a manual flash for the past few years and no problem at all. Other than being a bit snug in the hotshoe, I don't know what could be an issue with the cable.

Mine is older, but it looks like a high quality cord. I remember getting it through Amazon.

Mine LOOKS fine - but was dirt cheap, freight-free I think from China(?)  So if I have to chuck it I'm not out of pocket.  Think I will just not use the cable for a while and see if flash and camera behave themselves! Thx
