SOLVED No power after enclosure

[KdubATX]

Build powered on when wired to the Auditorium but I’m getting no power after I’ve wired up in the enclosure. Thought I was being pretty careful too :/. Pics attached and I tried to get decent shots of the different spots of interest. Hopefully I just did something absentminded at the end of the build that will be easily fixed tomorrow.
Welcome any thoughts and feedback.

I’d follow the board.

Do it as it shows on the board. You should see that these two sides of the diodes go to ground. That’s what you want.




I have the same one:

Awesome that’s what I had laid down but why not ask before soldering it!

Hmm well same no power issue with this second try at the build. Confused but I guess this project is just not clicking with me. Did 3x different pcb builds between my first crack at this and the second and no issues with any of them even though in theory this is a more simple project.

Setting aside for today and will maybe yank the 5mm LED and put in a 3mm one and see what happens.

If it powered up okay on the auditorium, but not in the enclosure, can you verify that you’re getting 9v through the DC jack?

Looks like progress. Either I had the first LED backwards or it likes the smaller one better. Probably case “A”.

Going to mark this resolved. I’ll get to filly test it out later tonight.
Thanks for all the kind and good advice along the way.
