Wiring help!! Please

[nflea7]

I have taken apart my jem 6 times and It still is not right. I just bought a SD JB stacked humbucker single coil for use in my Jem with my evo pickups. I can't for the life of me figure how to wire the stupid thing to get it to work properly. Right now I have the black wire out of the JB connected to the soldering point where the red wire in the diagram was on the jem scematic. I am assuming that is the hot as the black was wired to the ground. The Green wire coming off the JB is wired to the ground and the red and white are clipped off. What this does for me is when I switch to the middle pup it is like 10% of the out put the pickup should have I know it is not wired right or it would sing from what I hear. My evo's sound great they are fine. ANyone HELP? I really want this rewire to be the last here is the link to what the jem should be wired as, keep in mind I am replacing the middle pup with the JB. THanks Nate

When you say that the "red and white are clipped off", do you mean not attached to each other? The red and white must be connected together and taped up so they don't touch anything. But they must be connected together.

btw - Welcome to the forum.

Thanks for the welcome, um yea I clipped them and taped them off but they are not together, I will try that thanks. I am an Idiot the pickup was used and it came ready to go red and white soldered together and taped off and black ready to go green ready for ground but I had to mess with it alright hopefully fingers crossed the last time I have to re wire this sweet tone mechene. Thanks again.

Sometimes it the simplest things that bite us in the butt.

It should sound great once you get that little "fix" taken care of.
