OK..i landed myself a Stilleto Ace Combo, 2x12...i just LOVE the amp. Now, i got the amp and footswitch, but no switch cable, owner said it's a standard stereo cable. SO..went and bought one. BUT..problem is the fonctions are inverted..when i hit the channel switch..the SOLO activates and when i hit the Solo..i switch channel. I want it the right now, so please don't tell me..JUST use it that way..LOL

The cable has a 3 wire thingy...red, blue and ground. all connections seem fine from what i can see. So what could be causing this?

Get out your soldering iron. Open the box, and flip-flop the tip and ring connections on the switch's output jack.

that was my first tought, but there is no wire in the footswitch, all PC board connection.

you have to flip both ends of the cable!

does'nt change anything..weather it's one or the other..connection wont realy change, just the wire's colors.
 
Your right, wiring wouldn't make a difference. Tip to tip and sleeve to sleeve. The footswitch looks to be a simple circuit. I opened mine up to see. Must be something going on inside the amp.
