Help me fix my stuff

Post by Bearstripes »

I posted this over in the bst but was referred to here so maybe someone here a is interested in my proposition.

So j have a few broken pedals lying around that I would love to not be broken anymore!

First is a Ibanez ot10 octave
When bypassed it passes sugnal but when engaged the signal is barely audible.

Then is a monster piece mk2
I think it's te switch cause when I mess with that it sometimes works but other than that does not work when bypassed.

Last is a good ol rat.
Same thing I think it's the switch, not totally sure.

If this seems fair and you want to do it then get at me and fix my stuff!

If i am asking too much let me know

try spraying some electronic contact cleaner (deoxit is good) in the switches of the monsterpiece and rat and see if that helps. the octave sounds like a bad part. check to see if there are any loose wires or broken connections
