so i posted on here about having volume drop issues with my 5150 and you all suggested the contact cleaner with a guitar jack to clean out the effects loop jack. i did that and yesterday i go to hit my effects button on the footswitch It drops my volume down as if it were on 0. i hit it again to turn it off and my volume goes back up. i turn it on again-my volume drops again. So why is this happening? after i unplug and replug the remote switch jack a couple a times it comes to and stops doing it. but should this be happening. Also is it normal on a 5150 to get a little bit of a volume boost when you switch on the effects loop, ive noticed it does this when functioning properly?

It sounds like you have really dirty loop jacks or possible a bad jack. If the cleaning didn't help it's probably time for a tech to have the jacks changed. There will be no volume change when switching the loop and and out.

Ok i tried cleaning the jacks one more time really good and it worked good for about a month. then yesterday at practice it did it again where if I have the effects loop on the volume dropped and got a really muffeled tone. if i swithed it off it went back to normal. Anyways im done with foolin around with it and i would like to send it to you for not only that but possibly a couple mods as well. I would just take it to a local tech but i prefer someone that specializes in these guys ya know?If you could get in contact with me as soon as possible that would be great ill try the # on your contact section as well. heres my email.
