![]() Why was I missing 2 loop jumpers and 2 freaking long wire jumpers that this schematic says are there. Then a jumper wire from the jumper loop on 3 to 5 that goes around to pad 2 on the left VLX91 side? Then it adds a loop jumper from pads 3 to 5 and another from 2 to 4 to a ground lug on the switch all on the left side of OTAX? It also added a jumper wire from left common (pad 6) to right common on the VLX91 side? The 3 pad one is on pads 3,4,5 on the left side of VLX91 and the 4 pad on pads 2,3,4,5 on the right side of VLX91. The schematic has more jumpers and they are setup like this. Why wasn't mine the same as the schematic? Why when I reproduced the schematic I got nothing? I got full humbucker on position 1 and full humbucker on position 5 which is all I really need but I'm still baffled how to set it up like the stock wiring. Broke it down and ripped everything off again and wired just the hot leads a the bridge to pad 1 and the neck lead to pad 5 on the OTAX left side. Went over all my work and still found nothing. After all was said and done I plugged in and got nothing. Major pain in the ass as I had to add acouple loop jumpers that would skip a pad which was not on there originally. So I ripped everything off of the switch to try to recreate the schematics way of it. I tried wiring it where I thought everything went and it was all screwed up, some positions worked and some did not some weren't how they were supposed to like parallel or split or whatever. I don't remember how the pickups where wired and the pics I took before I ripped it apart aren't of too much help. This is how it came out of the guitar and it was never set up a different was due to solder not being on some of the pads. It also has a jumper from pad 6 of OTAX to the ground lug on the switch. I had the 3 on pads 1,2,3 on the right side on the side that reads VLX91. I had the 4 on pads (with switch facing so blade is up) on pads 2,3,4,5 on the left side on the side of the switch that reads otax. My switch had 3 jumpers on it, one for 4 pads and one for 3 pads along with the front to back jumpers on the bottom (common) pads plus a pad to ground. The jumpers are in different locations than what the schematic shows. No one messed with the switch before I did. Im trying to put my guitar back together and I noticed that my wiring/switch was not setup like the diagrams for it. ![]()
