My boss metal zone pedal power light wont come on when i hook the ac adapter to it i get nothing but a hum and no output clean or distortion,then when i plug a 9volt battery in it gives only clean tone when i try to switch to distotion no power comes on indicating tht it is working...it worked fine yesterday but b4 i turned it off it gave out a high output sound louder then it usually is and i didnt change any settings on the pedal for it to do so and now today it dosent work at all no effect coming from it
There is a switch contact that connects the battery when you unplug the AC adapter. These commonly get sprung and cease to make contact leaving the battery disconnected when adapter is unplugged, resulting in no power. Verify the battery is being connected and see if the unit works properly. If so the adapter is either the wrong one or defective. In other words, there may be two problems.
