I have a modded boss sd1 which had the tone stack modded (premier guitar mag article) I'm trying to put the pedal back stock and have no idea what goes to #5 on the top of the circuit board where all the wires connect. Looking at the schematic it looks like it goes to the tone pot but there's only two lugs and there used going to #8 and # 11 ? Thanks for any help with this

Wire #5 connects to pin #1 on the tone pot. There should be 3 lugs on the tone pot.
You've got to love obsolete technology.....

is there a chance the pot lug/pin is still connected to the wire, whilst disconnected from the pot?
don't make me draw another line.

Just pulled the pot out and can see where the outside lug is knocked off. Stupid oversight thanks for the time
