Ahhh I Think I Broke The Toggle Switch On My Submarine

Sign in to disble this ad
Ugh, I put my Electronix Submarine Designer pedal in my bag and when I got to the studio, one of the toggle switches does not switch anymore. I tried putting a little force but it's stuck in the left position. Is there any easy way to fix something like this or is it busted? Any help?

I'm not the original owner though, I doubt he'll do it for free and this thing was already expensive. Ugh

Long shot: sometimes toggle switches get jammed inward a bit; you may be able to release it by pulling outward (not too hard!) with a pair of pliers.

If it's just a toggle switch, shouldn't it be a pretty simple soldering job?

And go to the new website and e-mail Osman and ask what the repair cost would be.
He has always been very supportive of his pedal buyer's even of second hand owners (like me) and you might be surpised at the cost of the repair.

Messaged them this morning. Hopefully I hear back from them soon and it's not too expensive. I wish they made a foam case for the top or something for the toggle switches. I want to keep it in my pedalboard but I'm afraid it'll brake if I take it out of my house.
