My GUESS is a bad solder joint. Probably with the switch. (since you should have to cut it off)

You may also want to check the battery pack for damage.

[thanks but actually once you unplug the connector from the circut board the sound goes back to normal[]

[Firebird21]

Are you 100% sure you wired the LED correctly? There are ,I believe 8, wires that get saldered together and one that doesn't. Also be aware of the clash sensor attached to the LED board.

And also be sure that the connector is fully inserted into the receptical.

[see i have the seven wires soldered to the poitive and the last wire purple to the negative.i did it the reverse and it did not work. so maybe it could be the clash sensor that is directly plugged to the circuit board.the anakin fx sabers clash sensor is part of the wires that go to the blade and the sensor is inside the stock holder.with the 04 vader the sensor is plugged in to the circuit board.

Does your wiring colors match up to the below picture?



If the colors do then you have a wiring problem which you need to correct. Just follow the picture for the proper wiring. This is from Tim's Vader conversion.

If the colors are different then you need a multimeter to check each wire to see if it is poistive or ground.

Your positives and negatives are backwards.
