ansil Posted September 11, 2004 Report Share Posted September 11, 2004 i emailed peavey when i coudlnt find a schematic. they should follow through with sending it to me. also what all does the foot controller control?? can you open up the foot controller and show us that usually they just connect a wire to ground. closing or opening a relay. one of the easiset ways is to start touching wires together. but then again. you could fry someting possibly if they are doing more than standard to ground relays Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thrashncrust Posted September 11, 2004 Author Report Share Posted September 11, 2004 (edited) it looks like the actual jack is partially cracked to me, and the plug is bent kind of, if u look closely, edit- they have been put up Edited September 11, 2004 by thrashncrust Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ansil Posted September 11, 2004 Report Share Posted September 11, 2004 if you have a multimeter try to isolate which pins go to what wires. that wya you can source out the actuall pinout of the switch.. i suspect peavey used that system as they use it on some of there other more complex wiring.

thrashncrust Posted September 11, 2004 Author Report Share Posted September 11, 2004 eh, maybe ill just look for another ft switch on ebay, if mine is a 2 button for combiner and selecter, will a 3 button for selecter combiner and reverb work?

ansil Posted September 11, 2004 Report Share Posted September 11, 2004 just depends on ht elayout. that can be fixed quite resonably.. you can buy the ends at mouser. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
