    I meant you’ll have to wire the lugs on this the opposite way to the other adapter as the EHX adapter is center positive instead of negative.

    So where it says to board – you’d wire it to board +

    Let me see if i understood right…

    1. The ehx adapter is center positive. The pigtronix is center negative.
    Right?

    2. In the inside pic of my pedal, the board… i mean… there are three wires o cables that you see attached to a stereo female jack connector.

    The three colors are:

    Brown, black and blue.

    Now… how can i know which one is the positive one?

    I presume that the blue one is neutral or ground.

    Is it possibile to know it using a tester?

    Sorry but… i am pretty confused… :-(

    Thanx again.

    Okay, hopefully this diagram helps, this is for the EHX positive tip supply.

    I’ve added a 1N4002 diode on the drawing too, if you add this in if you make a mistake with the wiring or plug in a negative tip supply in the future by mistake the circuit will be protected.

    You can remove the 3 original transformer wires as you aren’t using it anymore.

    Your Red cable is positive?

    Yes the red lead is the positive voltage and black is ground.

    I gave the effect to a specialist.

    I hope to have my old clone theory this weekend and i hope it will be operative.

    I will let you know.

    Bye
