Hey,

I got a brand new 3pdt for my microamp clone, I got no sound coming out of my pedal. If I check continuity, tip to tip, it is working and sleeve to sleeve working, but no sound coming out. LED is also working on and off..  Please help me I got a gig tonight! Thanks!

double check your wiring on the 3pdt...

pcb in/out...

Try using a multimeter to check the 3PDT switch is working . Is it working in bypass ?

[JPGraphX]

I have double check and wiring seems good..  3pdt working good also

[JPGraphX]

But no sound in True Bypass, but there is continuity...

[Ice-9]

sounds silly but have you checked ya guitar leads, if you have continuity on the pedal maybe you have a dodgy lead or a short in the pedal.

[JPGraphX]

I know it is messy à bit

[JPGraphX]

You mean to check my guitar cable?

[JPGraphX]

I have continuity from tip to sleeve and enclosure, not normal huh?

[JPGraphX]

that was my issue! Thanks guys!

[deadastronaut]

so a short then...


have a good gig..

[JPGraphX]

Actually when I drop it in my enclosure, same thing.. Damn, where is that *#&*& short coming from!

[Ice-9]

Loosen that jack and try and spin it round a bit.

[JPGraphX]

It works! Thanks

check ground continuity...a polarized electrolytic cap that may be facing the wrong way or a cold solder joint. barring sloppy worksmanship, it's usually something minor.
