SOLVED Tearjerker Wah no signal

I sadly get no signal from my Tearjerker Wah build. The LED also is slightly on in bypass which seems really weird and makes me worried about my wiring (see photo). I am getting dry signal in bypass mode so that works fine (except the LED). Btw the LED is just for testing I want to put another one in there when its done.

I replied in the other thread as well, but this is probably the more appropriate place.

Reverse the wires going to the 3PDT board and it should work.

I do have one question, how are you going to get the board in the enclosure with those jacks already soldered on?
 
I just wanted to make sure that the Pedal works so I was thinking about desoldering one jack. Now that I think about I am not sure how I should solder the Jacks from the bottom side of the pub when its in the enclosure?

I'll reverse the connections thank you! Maybe it'd make sense to include a wiring with the 3PDT board in the build docs. I could do that if that is wanted :)
 
Probably not a bad idea, I'll see about working up a diagram and adding it.

The easiest (possibly the only?) way would be to use internal threaded jacks.

Maybe I'll try soldering the Jack from above, I'll see how that works.

Now the LED seems to work fine, I am getting signal in bypass but nothing when its engaded. When I put some dip switches on the pedal starts oscillating.
 
Any advice what to do next? I recently figured out how to use an audio probe that helped me fix my ghost echo. I could use some suggestions though where to check the signal. What could be critical spots?
