What am I missing here? This is my first time using the LED 3DPT single color stomp Footswitch. I used a breakout board and connected the 4 center wires as normal with posts of the LED stom switch also in the ground and Switch terminals. I then soldered in a jumper between the two hole in the PCB for the traditional LED. The pedal powers up and works great but the light doesn’t illuminate. If I knew it would be a hassle I would have just gone with a traditional LED, but I wanted to be all fancy pants.

Where are the LED terminals for the 3PDT connected?
These need to be connected to the LED pads of your PCB (in the correct polarity).
Next time, this breakout board is designed specifically for those footswitches.

That’s awesome, I didn’t know there was a separate board for this switch. So is my switch flipped 180 degrees from how it should be? Is this fixable without unsoldering the switch from its current board? Could I remove the jumper I have between the led pads on the pcb and then run 3 wires from the top of the switch terminals you pointed to the led pcb pads? Unfortunately I snipped the top of terminals off after I soldered the first wire on.Where are the LED terminals for the 3PDT connected?
