I'm failing at trying to add an led to my 535q wah. The pcb board is green with a 4 wire "ribbon" hookup to a Carling switch.
Other sites show a red board and more wires on the ribbon. I bought a long shafted Alpha 3pdt and tried several different
schemes and am getting nowhere. I don't care about true bypass or not, just an LED when wah is engaged. There are so
many differences on where to put the resistor for the LED and where to draw the 9v power from. Which way the columns
of the switch run as opposed to the old switch and where the wires from the old switch connect to the 3pdt are confusing me
beyond belief. I have rewired switches and pickups on many guitars with no problem, but can't get a handle on this mod to
save my behind. Any help in any way, shape or form would be greatly appreciated. There is a request for this mod in the
"vault" forum, but when it references "as in the picture shown", I see no images or ways to display an image. To anyone
who even bothered to take time to hear this, Thank you in advance and best wishes.l
