Hey Guys,

I have an older 3 knob compressor that I got in 2006. Recently, some kid spilled a pint beer on my pedalboard at a gig (I know…). Thankfully, I tracked him down, and got money back for all my pedals.

The one that I still need some help fixing is the 3 knob comp.

When the pedal is engaged, I get sound. When I click it off, no sound passes through.

Is there a simple fix I can apply myself?

Thanks for your help!

Cheers
SJB

Possible you shorted the switch. It worked before and engaged works now, so probably the issue. Can you check continuity? Is it wired exactly per the instructions? OR is it easier for you pop the switch out if you have a replacement?
