After a lot of tracing and testing found some spots with no voltage. Went over everything again and sure enough I had inadvertantly swapped a 10k resistor with a 10r. Desoldered swapped and it powers up with sound. Only issue now remaining is that the volume is not really working. I'm going to...

Thanks, great community here, lots of great advice and tips, as a beginner, really appreciate it!!!

Im reading 8.4 on the led anode side and the r100. Here ia a rrally basic question anyone know if this pedal should be run at 9v or 12v ....my power supply can do 9 , 12, and 18v

Thanks, not 100% comfortable but will give it a go/google some more info, I did check voltage at various points, including output (8.2v at output lug). Good opportunity to learn to read schematics better. I am seeing around 7.4 -8.2 volts at various points. I'll try a more systematic approach...

Flipped ground and + on jacks still nothing, no sound, no led. No noise now though so thats 1 step forward.

Thanks. Originally I had them opposite and thought that was the problem and flipped them. I will flip them back and try again.

Hi. Valhalla distortion build. Main issue, no led, no output (other than noise). Tried both in and out of enclosure. No bypass just get noise, when 3pdt is turned on the freq of noise changes but no guitar sound. I've tried to troubleshoot with multimeter, tested all resistors and verified...
