Pharmacist Overdrive Daughterboard Wiring?

[grobbins]

Hello everyone

My first post on the PCB forum!

I've got a lot of pedal building experience but i've got a question for you. I've been working on a Pharmacist overdrive. When snapping the circled daughterboard from the sprue the part flew off and is not to be seen!

I am therefore asking if anyone can assist in advising on how this footswitch should be wired without the daughterboard

Cheers

Can you show us a picture of the Daughterboard that is missing a piece?

Sorry if i wasn't more clear - The whole thing flew off somewhere so i don't have it unfortunately. I was hoping to wire it the old fashioned way

Welcome a-board!
Not necessarily helpful, but if you use the tayda drill template found here on the board, the daughter boards holes actually align vertically with the main PCB. I'm currently awaiting some 2.54 male male headers pins for this reason.
So a traditional wiring may be a little more cramped than traditionally so.

Guys I found it in a house plant pot across the room (obviously)- We're all good now thanks

I don't know if Robert has a spare set laying around but he would be the man to talk to as it is probably specific to that PCB.
If you still had the Flying Debri, We could have done a continuity test to see which footswitch pad connects to the related little pads.

Thanks for the info. Out of curiosity what resistors did you use for the weird value ones?

Cheers

So it's still all together?

Yes all good and in one piece.

Thanks for replying

I don't recall having to sub anything but I have a lot of resistors.
$10 gets you 156 values. Will never see a weird value again.

a lucky dip it seems! I i have just gone with the closest match and if that doesn't work will try them in series but i don't think it subbing should matter in theory as they're close enough - 348k for 360 and 57K6 for 58

 

[music6000]

Just measure all the 360k + - 1% will get close, 5M1 may need some series work!!!

 

[music6000]

4.7M +360K =5.06M, close enough!

I've actually got some 5.1M ones from Tayda luckily
