So i bought a second hand 'broken' SHO for 50 pounds Smile

It doesn't seem to have a serial number on it or on the circuit board, but its gold coloured, with a record player design on it and it says D. Austin on the side.

Anyways....the 'broken' part...it has a zvex power plate, but the black wire that should be going to the circuit board is disconnected. So...i connected to the ground of the input jack, and the pedal works fine, but.....the led is on at all times....is this correct? should i solder the black wire elsewhere?

Sorry for the long winded nature of this post...

Thanks

I jumped the gun and emailed Mr Vex about the problem, as that was the advice given in another thread.

Should i have waited for him to invite me to email him? Whats the deal here?

If anyone knows how to wire the negative battery lead so the LED works properly, please let me know Smile
