Basically, if there's a jack in the input, the LED is on, no matter what you do with the footswitch. It doesn't seem to make any difference in tone so I guess it's bypassed? But with the LED on.

It's been like this since I got it (used off here), I stupidly left it too long to test it after receiving it. (3 weeks)

Any ideas?

Have you had a look inside? Was there any indication from the previous owner about what the issue might have been caused by?

How are you powering it? And do you know if the pedal is true bypass?

[cheddatom]

I'm powering it using a godlyke powerall. I get the impression that it's true bypass, but i'm not sure if i've tried it with no power. I couldn't find a battery compartment on it.

I don't really want to ask the guy I bought it off, as it would seem like i'm accusing him of selling me a dud after i'd already received everything and told him it was OK (without checking, what an idiot).

Ta for the reply, if anyone thinks this would be more appropriate in another area, please say so, 'cos I could do with getting this going!

It has to be powered from it's own seperate supply. If you use a power brick or daisy chain it won't work. It's annoying, but once you get it powered up it sounds lush!

that IS annoying. Maybe I can wire it for a battery.

Mine does the exact same thing I think.

Hmm I am many hundreds of miles away from it so I can't test it.

Its the only pedal on my board that does it though
