Hi everybody. I'm having a little problem with an Obi-Wan sound card. The sound card is not in the hilt, it's been removed.
Basically it seems the sound card is always on. Once I plug in the batteries the sound card just instantly turns on and it won't turn off. I even took off the switch off and made sure the switch wires were not touching ... and as soon as the final AAA battery is clipped into the battery holder the sound just powers on ... I've tried using the switch once it's turned on but it does not turn off or react at all. The only thing I can do to turn it off is take out one of the batteries.
In case it matters ... the Obi sound card has 5 wires ... 2 blue for the switch ... 1 BLACK ( I have connected to the negative wire on the battery pack) ... 1 RED ( I have connected to the positive on the battery pack and to one of the wires on the speaker ) ... 1 BROWN ( I have connected to the other wire on the speaker )
Does anyone have any ideas as to what might be wrong and what I should do?
