Dunlop Crybaby Rev.D Wiring Help

[soupbone]

I found this on Dandy Job(the guy that sells the whipple inductor) http://www.dandyjob.com/instructions/true-bypass-mods-instruction/   Scroll down a little and have a look at his wiring scheme for the Dunlop Crybaby Rev.D.He's using a 3pdt switch,but wiring it as a dpdt switch.(no led) I'm trying to add an led to his wiring diagram.Any help would be the bees knees!

I'm mainly trying to figure out if the power for the led is coming from somewhere on the PCB.

It is best to take the power from the positive power source.  Battery or the DC jack connection.

I think this should solve the problem.

Where R1 is, use a 1-3K resistor for a normal diffused LED, or 15-20K for a superbright LED.



EDIT - the power comes from the same place as the power for the board, so as long as the red (9v+) leads are both coming from the positive terminal of the battery.

I just noticed somthing...This diagram is a Vox V846 I believe.The one I have is the D.C. Rev.D that's on his page.Man,I feel bad Tommy!Thank you for helping me!If you can do the same wiring diagram,but for the D.C. Rev.D,I would be forever grateful.Thanks!

No worries! I'm at work now on the phone but I'll see if I can get back on the computer tonight and draw it up. Is that dc rev d picture on the same page easy to find?

Awesome!Yeah,it's on the same page.Thanks!

Sorry about that, that was my bad. That must have been the first picture that loaded yesterday and I just copied it!  

The principle is the same though, just make sure you have the red wire going to the 9v and the black to ground.

EDIT: There should be a resistor in the second picture the same as in the first. Gosh I'm such an idiot this week.....

P.S have you got a jack socket on there already? If you are putting one in, I found out the hard way that there are two positive terminals and it matters which is connected to battery, and which goes to the board.

There should be one large negative terminal (to ground) on the back of the DC jack, then the closest positive terminal goes to the positive battery terminal. The pink coloured wire in the diagram goes to the other positive terminal. Hope this makes sense!

Yep,I know how to wire the d.c. jack.Thanks Tommy for your help!Greatly appreciated!
