If the power goes off when you plug in the pedal, the pedal LIKELY has a short in it between two of the three connections at the plug.
Firat, try putting the pedal plug in BEFORE applying power.
Likely the pedal presents a pot or volume control that will have like 5 volts across it an the wiper returned on the same cable. If the wiring configuration is wrong OR if the plug goes through a period of shorting the 5 volts out during insertion that will cause a problem...
To troubleshoot, move the pedal to half way and these with an ohmmeter for shorts between ANY two of the three connections.
