Burnt pad

[metalguy55]

Any tips on what to do when you've burnt the pad clean off?

Check the schematic to see what component it comes from, and use a wire to connect the components.

It's from the foot switch to the SW pad on the board.

Which board?

 

[Bobbyd67]

Probably a 4k7 resistor or led

The schematic should still show what component that pad goes to.

Which board?

Its the Simulcast board.

That' going to go to the 4.7k resistor right above the SW pad

Yep, just connect a wire to the bottom end of R100 (4K7)

Thanks guys! Working on my first couple pedals. I'm making every single noobie mistake I read about before hand. It's hilarious.

It seems so simple but I’ve laughed...I’ve cried...mostly cried.

Every time I think I'm almost there I do something stupid to remind me I'm only human

It worked! I attached the wire to the bottom end of R100 like you guys were saying. After a while of debugging a couple other things I finally finished my first pedalpcb project, the Simulcast!
