Woodpecker no effects or voltage

[Joshhr]

volume works but none of the effects.

So I tested continuity and everything checks out. I rechecked correct components. I did an audio probe and there’s nothing working starting with Q2 (2n5089) and to the right on the schematic. Voltage reads 9v on positive side of 1n5817 but nothing on other side or anywhere else.

any thoughts?

I’m having the same issue with mine. Is your depth knob acting like a reverse volume knob? I suspect a fake 2n6027 with mine. I have a central brand one on order now. Where did you source your transistors?

Depth knob isn’t doing anything. I got my 2n6027 from Aliexpress (China).

I got the voltage to work and I think the issue is the 2n6027s I have. I ordered some from small bear. I’ll let you know how it goes

the small bear 2n6027 works! The pedal sounds great. Anyone know how to mark this as solved?

Nice! Hoping the same for mine!

I’m having the same issue with mine, I ordered backup 2N6027’s from mouser after mine didn’t do the trem but they’re both not working either. I wasn’t really expecting to get fakes/duds from mouser but maybe I’ll try smallbear just to be sure.

It may not be the same issue, but similar symptoms. Start up a TS thread and someone will help you track it down.

Mouser should be legit. Do they say “CEN” at they top?

yeah..Mouser should be good...I'd start a TS thread with some pics.
