B. Tremblay,
    I have one wire I know where it goes.  It is the black wire in the picture you posted that goes to the preamp out jack, next to the dc input jack.   I can't see where it goes in the picture and there are quite a few lugs on this jack.  Can you help me with this?

Thanks again!
Arn C.

Tremblay here...

There are two black wires in the bundle that comes from the input jack/power supply.  The wire visible in the photo I posted is the thinner of the two and connects to the 220k resistor on the board.  It does not connect to the power or pre-amp out jacks.

Do you need a description or photo of those jacks' wiring?

B. Tremblay,

QuoteDo you need a description or photo of those jacks' wiring?
I guess maybe that would help.   Mine is the same as the photo.  The dc jack is fine.  The preamp out jack is the one that needs the loose wire.
I have the wire that jumps across and I have a green wire attached to that(it was there and I do believe that to be correct) yours is red on the picture.  then I have the resistor on the side that goes from a top lug to a bottom lug then a wire from the bottom over to the dc jack.  Now I have one wire left, where does it go?   To the lug at the top where the resistor is attached?

Please help.  Just need to hook this one wire up and I am done.

Peace!
Arn
ps thanks for the help !!!

Referring to this photo:
(http://www.runoffgroove.com/pigboard1.jpg)

The red wire runs from a 33k resistor on the board to lugs 2 and four of the pre-amp jack.

The purple wire connects the ground of the pre-amp jack where the 1k resistor attaches, the ground of the power jack, and what seems to be the ground rail of the board.

Is that helpful?
