Hey guys I have a Hyper Fuzz FZ2 very RARE! it was working perfectly and then out of the blue it stopped working. when i engage the pedal the LED turns on and the signal runs thru the pedal but I get no effect what so ever! any ideas?? all these electronic shops wanna charge me around $65 just to take a look at it with no guarantees so any info would help! thanks.
Yeah I may have plugged in the wrong power source now that i think of it.
Welcome to the forum!! pm me and i can shoot you the schems for the fz2. What were you doing when it went poof? Accidentally use the wrong power source? Have you opened it to see if anything is wrong like a blown track or component? Am sure others are willing to help get this going again
Like Christo wrote. We need more information on what actually happened to it, maybe upload some pics.
Do you have the tools & Technical skills to repair this?
As you are most likely aware, It can be very difficult to remote diagnose a problem, if you lack some of the technical skills & tooling to perform the repair/s.
Think back a bit, & write anything & everything that happened to it before it stopped working.
HEY GUYS! i think i may have plugged in the wrong power source.
Hi guitarboy829
You didn't answer any of the other questions?
The part of the circuit, that protects & regulates the DC-in-power, is a bit more complex in an FZ-2 With your Multimeter & ESR/Cap meter, you'll have to check: D7 Q11 C36 C37 And possibly R46 C38 As well as a visual inspection of the PCB for any burned out/carbonized tracks.
All depending on the amount, & type of damage, that the Wrong/reversed voltage caused.
What type of Wrong voltage was it? It would help us a lot to know.
ok I have a guy taking a look at it now. but yeah I was at practice and plugging all my pedals in and may have plugged in the wrong power supply. thats all i can remember. thanks for the replys. and ill make sure to look at those.i'll keep you updated
BROKEN HYPER FUZZ I NEED HELP!
