I'd agree that the most common problem with existing cable (that's not exposed to the weather) is poor quality connections. Unless the cable is damaged or too short, replacement of the connectors may resolve the trouble... It's not a given that every cable run needs to be replaced.
By starting with a known good signal at the antenna, you can add individual runs to the system one at a time, checking for signs of trouble. If you add a section and have a problem, odds are high that the newly introduced parts or the connection to the existing system is the problem.
It's sort of like a plumbing system. If you have low pressure or dirty water at several taps, the trouble could be anywhere in the system. There could even be several problems adding to the confusion. In such a situation, you can avoid confusion by starting at the beginning... A well with just a little muddy water is going to result in poor pressure and water quality.

If the well is dry and you don't see rain on the horizon, you'll need to dig the hole deeper. (If the antenna can't get the job done, an amp won't fix it.)
