    I’ll check after work. Thanks so much man, don’t know how you keep up with dummies like me but I really appreciate it!

    apologies, I tried to post twice and had problems via mobile I guess…

    So, TP wires have all been run

    Tap LED is in correct orientation, still not power to LED

    Chip is fully seated

    Signal passes and volume pot has an effect on signal, but otherwise no effect present.

    I got a little tripped up on the troubleshoot doc with the “Red Areas” for probing with multimeter – am I measuring for continuity or just straight Voltage?

    apologies, I’ve been swamped at the office – I’ll try to take another look tonight.

    I forgot the 4th TP wire had come off, I’m going to re-solder that.

    The circuit board seems a bit “gummed” up from the flux – I tried Iso alcohol to clean up a little bit ago – it just made the board seem “sticky” to me. Is there a better product for cleaning up some of the residue?

    As far as the troubleshoot doc, I’ll need the pedal on and engaged or just “on”?

    Also, when using the wire methods vs bridging the solder pads to close the circuit, I’ve tried to get them in the proper spot as detailed – is there a “wrong” and “right” spot on or near the components for the wire method to TP1. 2. 3. 4 etc?
