Hello all....I've used the circuit off of JD's GGG site for the Rodent
http://www.generalguitargadgets.com/diagrams/rodentpl.gif

As long as I Leave the back cover off of my hammond enclosure,the LED comes on with no problem..As soon as I put the rear cover back on,the LED comes on really slow? No part of the circuit is touching the rear plate.Also if I touch one corner contact on the DPDT switch,the LED shuts off? I've checked all of my connections,wiring etc..and before I convert over to a 3DPT switch,thought I should ask any of you if you've run into this? I think the millenimum part of the circuit is RG's?

The switch isn't grounded and I'm wondering if the switch is wired properly per this layout drawing?

I ditched the millenium circuit and re-wired with a 3DPT switch...Everything works perfect now!

That is strange.  I've never had that happen, but then again, I haven't tried the Millenium Bypass circuit either.  I prefer using 3PDT's.

Yep...I won't be using the millenium circuit anymore either...I mean why hassle with it when you can just buy the 3DPT switches off this website cheap? :icon_biggrin:
