    I got a Superchamp XD, can use a Fender foot switch to change channel or turn effects on or off. Only interested in the channel switching really.

    I believe the correct foot switch is P/N 0071359000. impossible to get where I am here

    I do have one P/N 0050419000

    I cant find any wiring diagrams but the one I have has 1) channel switch and 2) Drive/More drive switch.

    I plugged it in and it indeed seems to switch the channels ok but seems to have locked out my effects and depressing the drive switch makes no difference. Is there anyway I can rewire the drive switch to switch effects or if I disconnected one of the wires off the drive switch would that disable it?

    Cant seem to find any wiring diagrams on the internet

    Hmmm, I just pulled it apart and may not be as straight forward as I thought. A PC board with several resistors and 6 pin switch. I thought it would be a straight 2 pole on off switch with ground to pin or something. Is a mono lead ok or a stereo lead / jacks required?
