BOSS DS-1 Issue with stomp switch, HELP!

[Bossk]

Hi Guys!
I just bought a 2nd hand BOSS DS-1 and while it looks pristine, there's a little issue, when I stomp the pedal it does not switch inmediatly, takes like 1 second to switch rom clean to distortion and visceversa, do you know what can this be? most probably is a very easy fix so I might try to do it myself. I just called the seller and he said that he never experienced such issue but this pedal was left unused for a couple of years just sitting on it's box...maybe it's lack of use?

thanks in advance for your help!

Maybe a leaky cap somewhere??   Does it look like the switch etc. is original?  If so, they use a flip-flop FET section to switch.  Something in there might be leaky, old etc....slow to charge.

.... leaky, old etc....slow .... you talking to me?

also, welcome to the forum, Bossk.

Sounds like a bad or underpowered cap coming off of the switch circuit.
