Help with individual pickup mod

[jereb]

I've hooked up the three dpdts just like the mod, but for some reason when I activate the bridge (humbucker, NON coil-tapping) it shorts out. I've replaced my switch, my 500k pot, and have unsoddered and resoddered it again and again- it still shorts. I'm really hoping that there's some small detail about this mod that requires me to do something different with a humbucker vrs single coil, rather than having to replace my pickup (it's a hand wound pickup from Canada, that until this mod worked VERY well).

If anyone has a tip, that would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

jereb,

Indeed, to the forums!

And while you're at it in answering John's request, be sure to include the color coding of the wiring for that humbucker, eh? If it's unusual, perhaps you can include a link to maker's site?
