Can anybody fix the LED on my boss pedal?

Post by Cody_Pole »

Don't know if this is the right place to post this but I was wondering if anybody could fix the LED or checklight
on my Boss FT-2 I think it finally burned out as it does not light up when the pedal is engaged perhaps change it
to a brighter LED? :idk:

Of course! I'm down.
Are you sure it's not a fix you could do yourself though? Shipping and waiting seem like a lot of "work" for something like that is all.
Maybe another DIY'er that is closer to Maine, coughcough you yankees, will chime in, so it doesn't have to travel all the way to texas.

LEDs last a longggg time, sure it's not actually the switching that is the problem...?

Unless you did something that could blow it of course.
