schematics for a 5-way

[Travis]

The only schematics I found on Duncan's site were for a standard Strat 5-way (unless I totally missed it). The 5-way switch I've got looks much more complex. It has two rows of terminals onto which the wires can be soldered. Any schematics for these? I've got everything wired in but I don't get a signal from the full bridge humbucker. I get:

pos 1: full neck
pos 2: neck split
pos 3: neck split/bridge split
pos 4: full neck/full bridge - this might not be 100% due to not getting a full bridge humbucker
pos 5: full bridge - this is the only thing that does not work at all

Any ideas?

Thanks

Travis

Re: schematics for a 5-way

It sounds like you have a multipole 5-way switch. The DiMarzio site has a schematic showing one way to wire them and you can find probably find more information on them at the Guitarelectronics site. They are for combinations requiring more complex wiring than a standard 5-way switch.
