Build Your Own Clone Message Board

Hi, it's my first time posting and my first time building, so i don't really know how to word this build i'll try to be clear.
So i built my Classic Fuzz Kit and when i went to test it everything looked fine until i turned it off and realised that the "clean sound"
doesn't go through the pedal.
So i can only hear my guitar when the pedal is own which means i can't turn off the fuzz.
Could anyone give me a lead on where to look and what to look for to find what's doing this.
Keep in mind this is my first time soldering small parts (usually i only solder things like guitar pickups and such) so some of my joint are bigger than should be ( without touching one another)
Thanks!

Are you saying that the pedal works and produces fuzz as expected when engaged and the LED is on, but when you turn it off, it goes dead? Or are you saying that you can turn the LED on and off, but the fuzz is always on?

Either way, you'll need to post some pics that clearly show your wiring.

it produces fuzz and the led lights up and when i turn it off no sound goes thru.so when the pedal is on i got fuzz, but when it's of there's nothing not even the clean signal.
i'll post pictures in a few min

Does bypass kill the signal completely, or does it do nothing to affect your signal?

There's not sound at all when the pedal is off (led not lit)
here are the pics

here's the jack an upper part of the pcb

Check your footswitch wiring. It looks like you have the wires that go to lugs 7 and 8 reversed.
