pangwin61 Posted October 3, 2015 Share Posted October 3, 2015 My HD 500x is not rocognizing both my JTV 59 and 89F. There have been times at gigs when I plugged in and it would not recognize it right away but then kick in and scaring a few people because my volume was up. Now, I cannot get it to recognize either guitar at all. I also tried 2 digital cables so this eliminates the problem being either the guitar or cable. I also tried re-flashing the memory with no success. All of this equipment is about 8 months old. Anyone have any other suggestions. I am not happy at all because I am at a standstill and have gigs coming up. Thank god I don't have one this weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silverhead Posted October 3, 2015 Share Posted October 3, 2015 Take a close look at the VDI input jack on your POD. If there are any bent wires in the connector try straightening them out using some thin piece of wire that you fashion into a J-hook.

pangwin61 Posted October 3, 2015 Author Share Posted October 3, 2015 Well, the wires seem to be nice and straight. I'd hate to have to send this for warantee work because I heard the return time sucks. What does one do when they rely on this lollipop?

pangwin61 Posted October 3, 2015 Author Share Posted October 3, 2015 WTF! I did not use the word lollipop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pangwin61 Posted October 3, 2015 Author Share Posted October 3, 2015 I just realized that I had the battery in the guitar. Could that have somehow screwed something up in the HD 500x? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pangwin61 Posted October 3, 2015 Author Share Posted October 3, 2015 scratch this thread it turns out that it is my jtv89f. i tried putting a charged battery in and got nothing at all even through the magnetics Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
