Seymour humbucker problem with strat

[mgutier]

I just bought the duncanc invader humbucker to replace the stock Fender dh-1 humbucker in the bridge in my 2001 american deluxe fat strat which has a ssh configuration -- heres the problem, the dh-1 has 4 wires, the invader 3, and my 5 way switch has a ton of posts which the person who tried to install has never seen before (its some kind of switch with more solder points available than usual). We got it working but have a problem because when I throw it all the way up into neck position the humbucker is active as well as the neck pickup...cant seem to find out what to do.

Sounds like you have a 5-way super switch. Try looking at the wiring diagrams here

There are several wiring gurus here on the forum and I'm sure they will chime in. Good luck!
