George Lynch Kamikaze Wiring Issue

So I’m wiring a project with a George Lynch Kamikaze setup, one push/push pot to control volume and pickup selection. It’s wired as per the diagrams I can find, however my bridge pickup(SD Jupiter) is split and is now essentially a single coil. That is not the intended result. I don’t have a picture of mine right now but it’s wired just like the attached picture.

What would be causing the bridge to coil split if wired in this configuration?

Welcome to the forum!

If the series link wires were not connected to each other (red & white in Duncan pickups), it can cause this. Also, a bad coil. What are the other wires doing on the Jupiter?

Standard SD wires. Red/white soldered together, green/bare to the ground and black to the top lug like in the photo. It’s possible the red/white came unsoldered under the heat shrink I have on them but that’s unlikely. Worth checking again I suppose.
 
if its switching between neck and bridge fine, i doubt its the switch. like dave said, check the dcr
