Hey all,
You may remember me from the Volume Issue thread. Same guitar, same wiring set up (Mike Richardson's Strat Mod).
So I finally was able to fix the volume issue. Turns out I had connected one of the leads from the Push/Push switch to the grounded terminal instead of the hot one. However, now that I've fixed that, the Push/Push switch no longer works. It doesn't click or stay down when you push the button. Is there any way to repair that or is that just hopeful wishing?
Also, now the humming has increased significantly, and even worse, when the pickup selector goes to the middle position, if you jiggle it a little, the signal entirely drops out. Does anyone know if that deadspot means anything serious? Is it a short? I have an Allparts Super Switch. There is also some crackling sound switching between positions. Does that mean my switch is going out?
Thanks for any help you folks can offer.
