a problem with the hot rod deluxe footswitch

[trumslagarpojk]

I have a problem with my hot rod deluxe footswitch.

When it's not plugged in, i can switch channels and choose drive/more drive by using the buttons on the amplifier. That works just fine.

But the moment i plug in the footswitch, the channelswitcher turns on and i cant get it off, neither by pushing te button on the speaker, nor by pushing the button on the footswitch. I can switch between drive and more drive though, but it can be a bit unstable, and switch by itself...

I've tried diffrent cables and the problem remains.

I assume it's something wrong inside the footswitch-unit?


thankful for all help.

An uncomfortably common problem with the HR series.

Not being a smart ass.......

Did you try another footswitch/speaker cable? (Not an instrument cable)

[FrankJohnson]

I wonder if it is working now?

hi

no, your not being a samrtass, but maybe i'm a dumass. i don't know whats the diffrence between an instrument cable, and a speaker cable?

i've tried a stereocable but that didn't work either...

what's the diffrence with a speakercable?
