Build Your Own Clone Message Board

Hi There,

I had originally got my pedal working. Thank you for your assistance:

viewtopic.php?f=20&t=59141

However now the sound cuts out. When I remove/wiggle my board while connected to power and amp, sometimes I can get the sound to cut back in and it still has the effect. I cannot isolate where the issue is and cannot get the sound to stay on. Not sure if something is grounding out? I have tried re-soldering all my jack connections and as far as I can tell they seem to be ok. Can you give me some pointers on where I could start troubleshooting?

Thank you in advance

I would say that it has to be a problem with either your wiring or one of the contacts on one of the jacks. Can you isolate it to a particular jack?

Having this same issue on mine too. I've resoldered to make sure there were no cold joints. Double checked I had everything wired correctly. The LED comes on for a brief second then goes out. Almost seems like I have a short somewhere but I can't figure out where.

Unfortunately, I can't really help you much more than to tell you what you already know - you have either a short or faulty connection somewhere. Often times with a problem like this, it helps to take the guts out of the enclosure. If you still can't track it down, please post pics that clearly show your wiring.
