If so, then hot up the traveler and see if anything happens at the other end. Depending how it is wired, no need to get fancy just a simple test light will almost do. Its a process of elimination. 3 ways wiring isn't too bad to trace once you have an understanding where the power is coming from.

They worked for 15 years +
Then one day they didn’t.
And FFS I already said I changed BOTH switches for known good 3-ways.
Please stop with the voltmeter 101.
