Title: VFE Dragon
Post by: wefunk222 on June 12, 2019, 08:33:30 PM
Switching problem on the Dragon.
LED is switching on and off but the signal is still going through the pedal. Pedal itself is not switching...always on. Any idea what part of the circuit is not functioning?
All the controls are functioning properly, just not switching off.

Thanks!

Are you sure you used the correct relay? The Dragon requires the non-latching version:

Thanks for the reply.
Yes just double checked. Correct relay.

It could be a defective relay even though you used the right part.  You can use the DMM to see if it is getting  power to the relay when the led is in one state compared to the other (on/off).
