Hi All,
I've been on a run of knocking out several PedalPCB pedals lately, and they've all been working fine on the first try, but my streak was stopped last night when I tested my Cobalt Drive pedal. It sounds fine, but the LED doesn't light up when the effect is on. I've checked the LED using my multimeter and it lights up just fine, and applying a different LED to the contacts when the pedals on also just results in the different LED not lighting up. Continuity is fine between R100 and cathode, and my soldering seems pretty tight, so I'm at a loss.
The only thing that seems odd to me is that, even with the pedal uplugged, one of the switch tests that should show OL when testing the switch by itself shows up with a reading. Problem is, I don't know enough about switch wiring to know if it should still be OL when wired into the pedal. So, if that's not normal, I could remove the switch and wire in a new one. If that reading's not a problem, though, I'd love some suggestions on what the issue might be.
I'll attach pics below to give you a sense of how things look!
