Wolfgang,

The resistances should be:

150k (foot down)
160k
207k
357k
infinity (foot off)

I measured mine and they are within 3k of those values with the
exception of the infinity which is around 6M

It is surprising that the foot down resistance is so high and the next
level is only a small change, but it works fine.  For information ,my
HH OffS is -10.

I assume you are using a stereo cable?  Two other resistors, a diode
and capacitor connect to the ring of the jack and they are important
for the splash sound, but a mono cable usually stops the pedal working
altogether.
