I’ll test that out and get back to you. Thanks!

Okay, so when it’s ON, it works! When it’s OFF, it seems no signal passes through to the amp. All I’ve tried so far is running it in front of an amp. Haven’t tried it as a preamp, yet.

OMG thank you thank you thank you. I was pretty sure the problem was in that general area (switch daughter board), but I couldn’t pinpoint it. Thanks so much for your help. I jumped pin C and pad 5. Haven’t done a proper test, yet, but applying power and inserting a cable provided a promising...

Just checked it. Not getting continuity between those two pins. Thanks for looking for me, though! I think I reflowed all those joints since that pic was taken, also. The switch daughter board is definitely looking rough. I also rebuilt most of the pedal at one point, just to make sure all the...

So this is weird. I get 6.7V DC between pins C and D, and 6.2V DC at pads 5 and 6, when it’s on. When switched off, I still get 6.7V DC at the pins, but 0V DC at the pads. When I switched the meter to mA, the LED lit up when testing pins C and D, and it read something like 6.1mA. This is with...

Thanks I’ll give this a try.

I still can’t figure out what’s wrong with this thing.

I am getting continuity between these. Any suggestions for what to try next?

So, do I need to run jumper wires to get this to work? Or do I need a new switch daughter board?

I appreciate that. It’s not making much sense to me at the moment, I’ll have to look at it again tomorrow.

I’m not getting any continuity between pads C and D with the switch active. With the switch bypassed, I don’t seem to be getting continuity between A-F or B-C. I think all the numerical pads check out, though.

So with the pins on the switch, should ALL the middle row have continuity with ALL the bottom row, and same with the top row, when switched, or just the ones in line with each other? I’m getting continuity with each pin in line vertically, but not necessarily say if I try the far left pin with...

Oh i forgot to mention, I’ve tried my MXR ISO Brick Power Supply, and a generic 9v 1amp ac/dc adapter.

I assume so, that’s what it says on the case, and I got it from AES… Is there something I can do to check it?

The voltages check out, 9v at V+ and 254v at cathode of D2. Tube board is a 12ax7 board. Here’s more pics. Couple more pics…
