I have a Hilton pedal 4 yrs old. it just all of a sudden goes dead on me. seems if i take it and fool with it, like pull out the cable going to the amp, or if i move it around upside down , ext, it seem to work again for a while. when playing i can here my tone change all of a sudden. then its like it fades to no volume then if i fool with it again it comes back for a while any one have any suggestions

That sounds like bad cables.

Check for loose jacks, loose/broken solder joints in the jacks, check for connections at the power inlet.
Keith's email is all over the forum, email him.
It's likely to be something simple.

Could be the power supply connection (jack). I was having problems with mine and I could wiggle the power connection and it would come and go. I replaced the power jack on the pedal and no more problems.
Could also be the plug on the power supply cable. |

Jack thanks for that information. i will check that out .if the supply cord was acting up would it still supply some juice to the pedal. because the light on my pedal does not go out.
