IIRC the sustain pedal on VFX works backwards. It disconnects when you press the pedal. 
That means that without the pedal connected the plug hole at the back of your VFX should do 
the connection. A standard female 6.3 mm plug hole acts this way. But if it is old, the 
connection might be bad. Or if the connection is totally off, the plugged pedal has no effect 
at all.
