avhamer Posted June 28, 2018 Share Posted June 28, 2018 Hello, I want to change the wiring of the switch for a humbucker from series/single/parallel to single-coil/parallel/other-coil. It is an on/on/on switch. I cooked up the right diagram in the picture (left is current wiring). Is it correct? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woodinblack Posted June 28, 2018 Share Posted June 28, 2018 There is no 'standard' for On On On switches, and no standard for wiring colour on a humbucker, so hard to say. Can make an assumption based on your diagram on the left that red is hot, black is ground and white and green are the other ends of the coils, but without knowing for definite it could be wrong.

paul_5 Posted June 28, 2018 Share Posted June 28, 2018 (edited) Most On/On/On switches are set up like this, aren't they? Assuming that the RED and WHITE are the hot outputs from each coil, and H is the signal output the the jack socket then I can't see a reason why it shouldn't work.

Woodinblack Posted June 28, 2018 Share Posted June 28, 2018 Most (but not all) is one of those two types, yes, but which one of those? Can make an assumption on what is there now, but easier to saw which it is so it doesn't get done wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From the current wiring, I deduced that it must be type 2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
