Fender S1 wiring issues

I'm wiring a Duncan humbucker into a Strat with an S1 volume pot coil splitter, only splits humbucker. I wired it according to the SD diagram and it was running single coil only. The original diagram as follows...Green and Bare to tone pot, Black and White to S1 pot, Red to pickup selector switch. I tried White and Bare to tone pot, Green and Black to S1 pot and kept Red to pickup selector. Boom. Humbucker runs full power but now when I put pickup selector to position 2 the tone is very thin and very unlike the tone with the original humbucker. When I split the coils it's even worse, very unusable tone. Any suggestions would be appreciated. I have this thing opened up now and ready to try other wiring options !!

Fixxxed it.

RED AND BARE TO TONE POT.

GREEN AND BLACK TO S1 POT.

WHITE TO PICKUP SELECTOR SWITCH, BRIDGE PICKUP POST.

Time for an oil change, Dinner then finish loading a new pickguard with Quarter Pounders.....Ahhh, the jam !!
