Strat 3-single coils / 3 way switch instead of 5 way switch

[Uncle Freddy]

I'm looking to find a wiring diagram that will show me how to wire my Strat with 3 single coils with a 3-way lever selector switch instead of the standard 5 way lever selector switch .....pick-up config will be: Bridge ON, Bridge & Middle ON, Neck ON ......let me know please, thanks everyone ...

If your switch looks like:

B C
M B
N M
C N

Wire:
jumper from c to c then, to the volume input lug
right side:
solder bridge positive to B and, a jumper to M
left side:
solder neck to N and middle to M

Hermetico: I have tone pot wire coming into M on left side .....can it stay there with the HOT from the Middle pick-up going to it ??

Just a single tone pot?
then wire it to any of the C's or to the input of your volume pot.

Two tone pots?
wire one to b on right side and to N on left side.
