bhouse1273 Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 I am trying to use the POD2.0 in manual mode (Bank 0) with a floorboard. What I need is for the floorboard buttons to act like a simple stomp box -- turn on/off Chorus, Reverb, Delay, EQ, Drive/Boost and Distortion. For a few fleeting hours, it did just that. SInce then, it has mysteriously changed it's behavior. Instead of affecting TREM/CHORUS, it seems to randomly toggle the other buttons. Like, no effects on at all, click TREM/CHORUS button, Reverb comes on, or maybe Distortion, or maybe Reverb+Delay+Distortion. Sometimes Chorus toggles, but mostly it doesn't. What gives? I am using the Black Panel Amp Model, if that makes any difference. I have also tried resetting the POD (power-on with Up and Down arrows depressed) with no change in behavior. Also, the Volume Pedal doesn't work. Any clues? I bought these units new 10 years ago, but the floorboard spend most of those years boxed up in storage.

phil_m Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 Have you tried using a different Cat5 cable between the POD and the Floorboard? That would be the first thing I would check out. The symptoms you describe kind of fit that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bhouse1273 Posted June 17, 2013 Author Share Posted June 17, 2013 Yes! That fixed the problem. I went ahead and sprayed some contact cleaner into the CAT5 sockets of the floorboard and POD for good measure and the buttons are working. I shoulda thought of that, but was just not considering the CAT5. Thanks! Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldskulls Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 ProstÅ™Ãkat oba konektory R45 napÅ™Ãklad Kontaktolem, potom mechanicky vhodným nástrojem /mnÄ› se osvÄ›dÄil mini Å¡roubovák/ opatrnÄ› oÅ¡krábat a srovnat kontaktnà pružinky uvnitÅ™ konektoru, rozmontovat Floorboard a prostÅ™Ãknout a procvakat vÅ¡echny spÃnaÄe , nechte si pÅ™elisovat konektory na koncÃch šňůry vždy, když jsou už unavené nebo ulomené nebo nÄ›jak fixujte, potom vÅ¡echno funguje, rozchodil jsem tak pedál ,který byl nefunkÄnà pÅ™es pÄ›t let! No, pÅ™i všà úctÄ› a oddanosti Line6, použità tÄ›chto R45 konektorů je opravdu hodnÄ› diskutabilnÃ, na podiu má koncovka jen velmi velmi malou životnost.
