Pickups not working after install

I pulled the EMGs out of my LTD and put in a Dimarzio Evo Bridge and PAF Pro, after wiring it up I plugged it into my amp before closing everything up, all I got was hiss, I tapped the allen heads with a screw driver and I didn't get anything back in all 3 positions.

I'm setting it up as 2 Humbuckers in series, 2 volumes, 3 way switch, pretty straight forward. I used the diagram on SD's site because the DMZ one was hard to follow. I'm lost at this point, here's a couple of pictures I took on my phone, quality can't get better but I can take closer up photos. I got a picture from the whole back side then one of the control cavity.
 
Re: Pickups not working after install

If you have combined the DiMarzio conductor colour codes with the selector switch wiring for a Standard (neck/both/bridge) Telecaster, everything should work. The pickup signals reach the switch in the conventional way. The output connects to the output jack rather than a Master Volume.

Judging by the photographs, you have not connected up the "collector" wire between four of the selector switch terminals correctly.
