Hey guys, so I have been having problems lately with my wah (Dunlop Original Crybaby) cutting out and or dropping in volume considerably. After replacing batteries and investigating it seemed to happen randomly when switching on/off, rocking the wah, touching the input/output jacks, putting weight on it . . . . basically anything could cause this to happen. So I opened it up and after trying out nearly everything I noticed the wiring harness was loose so I sprayed in some contact cleaner and fit it snuggly back on, all seemed fine BUT
It still drops in volume if I put my weight on it only in the heel down position, but the weird thing is it can happen whether the wah is on or not, doesn't seem to matter. And if I lift my weight off of it while its still in heel down the volume comes back . . . something must be shorting out but I have no idea what it could be. I have it velcroed (spelling?) to my pedal board so its not using the rubber feet. Any ideas??
