Remove the LED circuit board
-
re-use the LED spacer and the short lead will go to the same pad the greed wire is soldered to.
-
Mind your polarity, long lead is positive and short lead is negative.

All of the caps in the kit for this step have a minimum voltage rating of 25V, but may be as high as 50V. Your pedal will still work just fine with 9V after these mods, you just won't damage it if you use up to 18V
-
Replace C15 with 10uf
-
Replace C18 with 100uf
-
Replace C27 with 47uf

-
Put the plastic shield and backplate on the pedal reversing the dis-assembly steps and you are ready to ROCK!!!

Troubleshooting: Check to make sure that the soldering all looks shiny and that two pads aren't bridged by too much solder. Check to make sure no pads have lifted, if they have you can use a lead cut off a component to connect the broken connections. Check to make sure that none of the wires have come loose at the top of the PCB and fix them if so

Almost done!
