Had overlooked that you already solved the syntax error yourself ...  
BTW If you really want to start debugging (i.e. not just setting the log level to debug), then perhaps [this](https://discourse.nodered.org/t/debug-js-code-inside-function-node/26925/14) might be an easy way to get started. I wrote that tutorial for a function node, but it also works for any other Node-RED node ...
