Hi! My Brown Face Tremolo build passes a signal cleanly, but when the effect is engaged, the LED isn't turning on and no audio passes through. I know this problem has been seen many times, and the problem is likely with the LFO, but I've tried resoldering every joint, I checked my footswitch pins weren't touching, and I checked my transistor placement. I would appreciate any help. I've attached three images of my board and would be happy to take any others if necessary.
Thank you so much,
Sam

The circuit can't get power without the DC adapter jack installed.

It wasn't working (in the same manner) with the DC jack in, so I took it out to see if it was causing the problems. I can re-install it, but it had the same issues prior to its removal.

I re-installed it and realized I had wired the DC jack incorrectly the first time! It's working now, thank you so much.
