| Hey everyone, Can you connect me with someone who repairs the Goodrich Volume Pedal? The volume control will not work on the pedal. Appreciate any help I can get. Thanks, Audie McQueary |

Is the green light showing through the top of the pedal? If not, check out the power supply. The LDR2 has 2 light sources. If one burns out, the other will keep the pedal functioning. If you can't see the green light, you probably have no power to the light sources. Get an voltage/ohm meter. Test the voltage coming out of the power supply. I believe it is DC power. The specs should be on the wal-wart. I've had 3 wal-wart failures on a Hilton pedal. Have never had one fail on my LDR2.
Finding someone to repair it might be hard. I'm fairly sure Goodrich doesn't work on them any more.

| The LDR has a cylinder inside that turns by the use of a string that is wrapped around it that can sometimes be problematic. I'm happy to look at it for you if you would like but it is easy to see if there is a mechanical problem like this by removing the bottom plate (given that the green light is on suggesting that the power supply is ok). |

I just opened up my LDR2, and there is no string or cylinder inside.
