Tone Bender mk2 no sound on or off.

[J1C]

Hi. I'm a newbie here.. And I'm trying to build Tone Bender mk2.
Led is working, but I get no sound on or off.
I thought this might be an easy build, but I was wrong..
Please help me out! I would greatly appreciate your help )

have you tested it outside of the case? looks like your transistor leads are long enough to be shorting out against the enclosure. it is OK to cut those off closer to the board.

Clean the board! Measure continuity from the white lead on either connector to bare metal on the enclosure. Many people have hooked those 1/4" jacks up wrong. If you measure low resistance, you're one of 'em! Also, you could reduce the amount of solder you use by 1/2.

One of those jacks is wired up wrong... My guess is that the yellow wire on the Input jack needs to be moved.

Thanks for your advices! I moved the yellow wire and there is a sound when off, but not when on.. i guess I’m half way there
Any extra thoughts on why it would not sound when on..?
