LED light on FX pedal
« on: November 09, 2023, 04:42:46 pm »
Can't remember for sure .....................

Anode with a CLR (current limiting resistor) goes to the 9v positive

Cathode to ground

Is this correct? 

Does it matter where the CLR is placed in the circuit?  In other words, can it be placed both on the anode or cathode side? 

Thanks, Jeff

The CLR must be in series with the LED. Doesn't matter if it's connected to the cathode or anode.
A schematic, layout, and hi-rez pics are very useful for troubleshooting your amp. Don't wait to be asked. JUST DO IT!
