thx liberty. im looking at the pedal now and it looks a bit different than you described. i have 3 wires connected to the input jack- one (white) thats connected to the footswitch, another (orange) thats connected to the color switch, and another (white 2) thats connected to the pcb, white and orange are both soldered to the same lug of the input jack (tip). white 2 is soldered onto another lug (sleeve). does this make a difference? also, this is the switch i got…

i got this one because its the same shape as the original spdt switch. but is the lug order still the same as on a standard dpdt? i actually used one of your other wiring diagrams you posted in a earlier thread but couldnt get it to work (the alternate one at the bottom of pic).

i assumed the lug order was still the same and that white 2 (sleeve) was the fx input so i unsoldered it from the sleeve lug and wired it to the switch. but when i hooked it up it worked in bypass but i could hear the phaser coming through like you described (and i did ground it to the input jack ground where the 9v battery ground was soldered). when i hit the switch it would basically mute my guitar…..i could barely hear it if i cranked my amp up. so yeah something is still not right. this is definitely starting to become a pickle

it works in bypass. but oscillation is heard faintly. when effect is on my signal is faintly heard if i turn my amp up. now if i unhook the battery and plug in the signal doesn’t change at all when i hit the switch. which makes me think that it is getting power. this is what it was sort of doing with the original switch. and when i would play around with the switch i could get it to eventually work. but maybe this isnt a switching problem. anyways i did have a chance to take a pic of it. here it is.

EH man? Now im curious

Hey Guys,

I know its been awhile since i posted about my true bypass question. I just now got the free time to try to rewire the thing. Well here is what happened.

I wired it according to the diagram liberty belle showed me and it worked…..until i tried hit the switch to put it into bypass and then nothing. it muted my guitar signal. so then i tried the diagram the eh man posted and that worked, but i could hear the phaser in bypass (as liberty belle said this would happen with that type of wiring). anyway im curious if anyone knows why my signal is being muted when i put it into bypass. i checked all my solder points and everything seems to be connected correctly. so once again any help will be appreciated.
