I get a airflow sound, like an HVAC vent running coming out of my amp.

I isolated the amp using a single patch cable from Send to Return, and the resulting HVAC hiss scales directly in volume with the front-panel Master Volume control. If I plug in with no FX loop there is no hiss, but its not any pedal given the above single patch cable and no pedal.

Also, sometimes when I try to switch channels it won't. I have a video of me hitting the foot switch and the channel blue lights ping ponging back and forth.

This is what A.I. said about my symptons. The "ping-ponging" blue lights combined with your FX loop hiss confirms that your Diezel VH2 has a failing internal control microchip/switching logic board. But who knows if that is correct.

I just emailed this to Diezel, but thought I'd post here too.

The channels do switch now and I have had the channel switching issue intermitanlty in the past (returned my orginal VH2 shortly after I bought it, as it failed to switch at all after a few weeks). But I've had this one for years now.


Vidoes of both issues.
