    Lol..hold up!

    I just went and looked at that pic above again and noticed the black wire is on the wrong lug on mine. I swapped it and it works!

    Now to see if I have all the bits to reassemble it.....

    Winner! Looks like someone might have hacked at it before it was in your possession.

    Yeah seems like it. So the only thing I am missing is the nut for the wah pot. And I don't have a suitable one in my bits and pieces.....so need to work out how I can get my hands on one of them. May end up buying a new pot.....

    If you can find it on pedal parts let me know, I'm going to do an order soon and I can mail it to you.

    I found a suitable nut finally. Turns out I did have one.. I need to have a big reorganise.

    The pedal still isn't right though. The cog is spinning on the pot and the wah effect is intermittent. So there must be bad connections somewhere. I guess I'll keep fiddling.....

    Sounds like the Wah Pot is a bit dirty (a pretty common issue with Wah pedals since the Wah pot tends to have it's shaft rotated a lot and they wear out over time), what I would do is order a new Hot Potz of the correct value online, Realtone Music may have them in stock, I used one to replace the dirty intermittent Wah Pot in my Jim Dunlop Jimi Hendrix Wah pedal and it fixed it completely.


    I just remembered that I've got a Jim Dunlop Crybaby Wah pedal that's fully working, I'll post a pic of the insides once I find it.

    Cheers Doc, yeah that's the plan re the pot. Seems the most logical point of failure. Hopefully that will also rectify the pot 'cog' spinning on the shaft and not turning the pot reliably.
