I built an Audio probe last night , i have been meaning to do this for awhile now , so maybe i can figure out
where the signal is Going and or Stopping etc ...


* Volume Pot *


Lug 3 Input from OD board
Lug 2 to Effect Input on switch
Lug 1 to ground  


Thanks Mike !!

Shouldn't lug 2 of the volume pot be going to the effect out of your switch, not effect in? Perhaps you just swapped the board in/out wires accidentally.

Lug 2 - Distorted signal leaving the Volume pot going back to the stomp switch .
Lug 2 - Should have continuity with the output jack when circuit is ON

I have double  &  triple checked the wiring  , so i know for sure it's not that ....
But your right , its going to be something simple & stupid ! Ha !!

As long as vol lug 2 is going to "from pcb output" you're good. It was very early when I typed my response earlier, sorry if it was completely off base. Good luck! I can appreciate your perseverance.

"Lug 2 - Distorted signal leaving the Volume pot going back to the stomp switch .

If you are getting an overdrive signal at vol lug 2 in "on" mode, then its failing at the switch... To me that sounds like I would need to concentrate on my bypass switch for cold joints. You might have a faulty switch also... Did you use a brand new 3pdt, or did you salvage one from an old build? You'd be surprised how easy it is to screw up a 3pdt into non working condition, at least I was. Just spitballin' here.
