ya hooo... I just got a DM-2 for $111.27 plus $4.50 shipping. It's only issue is the led light does not work. I have some new replacement lights, but I never changed one ( I bought extras when I made a couple of A/B switches ) My question is, Are boss's led lights very hard to change out ( I never did one ) assuming that is the problem (burned out light ) |

Hi Sray10, Laurie & Guys
I have been wondering if this a 12V ACA pedal & Sray10, is running it off an PSA 9V adapter?
That would make the LED look like it's not lit, or very very dim.
Have you tried to run it from a "Known good" 9V battery,
this is the best test to see if the LED lights, or is blown,
It takes a lot to damage a LED, although older ones can be damaged by high soldering temperatures.
Let us know how you go, before you jump to the final conclusion, that the LED is snuffed.
Regards Dr. Bob
P.S.
Something else to consider.
Bossarea might remember, if any of the DM-2's had a momentary LED?

I just got the pedal today in the mail, took me about 15 minutes to change out the led light (you were right Laurie ) it was no problem at all.
Works perfectly now
I power it using a PSA 120A, which is daisy chained to a PSM-5. |
