Members jrkirkish Posted April 8, 2010 Members Share Posted April 8, 2010 mouser, rat shack, plenty of places. fry's might even have some. salvage from old electronics. or just jumper the leds so that it will work (though I'd be surprised if this was the only problem) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members jrkirkish Posted April 8, 2010 Members Share Posted April 8, 2010 jumper the leds? yeah. the only reason they are there is to provide an indicator light. i hope. If they actually make the whammy function, and without an LED it's useless, I'd be shocked at both the absurdity and incompetence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members BloodBros Posted April 8, 2010 Author Members Share Posted April 8, 2010 the whammy functions and goes through all the modes i just can't tell which mode it is on just by looking at it. there is black around the led...almost like a blown out bulb. don't know what happened i just got this thing used, maybe wrong adaptor at some point?.. anyway i replaced one of the bad ones with a red led i had laying around and it works so i just need to find replacements for the others.

If it works now, just deal with it. Buy LEDs on ebay. You could get leds of different colors at radioshack, to tell them apart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
