Title: Naughty Fish Voltage Bouncing Around/LED Flashing
Post by: dobo2001 on December 31, 2020, 09:34:24 PM
Working on a Naughty Fish, and was having some trouble with the power. The Voltage as read from the jack keeps bouncing between something like 0.3 to 1.5. The LED1 (showing if the pedal is on or off) just flashes instead of being a steady on. Could this be a problem with the diodes? There doesn't seem to be any ones that are burnt out. The 1N5817 does seem to have continuity to ground on both sides? Thanks!

Check that any capacitors around the power supply haven't been put in backwards accidentally?

Maybe post some photos of the board back and front, that might help spot what's going on.
