Hello. I am replacing a quick connect Gibson Humbucker with an SD Antiquity Humbucker. The current pickup has some coil split options which I am fine bypassing. It connects to the board with the 5 wire white connector. I attempted to connect the SD single connector to the 5 wire quick connect. I’ve seen this done successfully on YouTube but only with a 4connector pickup. No sound so far with a screwdriver tap on the pickup. Before I try to redo the job and hope for a better outcome, should the way I’m doing this work or are there other considerations? I connected SD black hot wire to Gibson red. I connected the SD braided ground to Gibson black and bare together. I soldered the Gibson green and white together. Then replugged the quick connect.
I have considered getting a new wiring harness and may later but wanted to hear the pickup first. Thanks for your help.
