Just finished building the Green Pony. I get the LED status light to turn on when plugged in and sound through the pedal when bypassed, but when activated -- no sound.
I checked over my solders, and loose cables, all is good there. I tried it without the back on, and the back isn't the issue.
When i flip the toggle for the clipping toggle, the LEDs do not light up.
The IC chip for the charge pump looked like it wasn't seated, so I checked to see if it was and it was super hot. Finger burningly hot.
The instructions for the build do not have any instructions for seating the IC chips, but I looked at the picture and figured it out, I think.
http://byocelectronics.com/greenponyinstructions.pdfShould that charge pump IC be super hot?
I will be testing for continuity later today and see if there is anything else that might be the culprit.
Any other ideas?
