Wiring help

[Citrus]

I have a 2 mini hum pickup guitar with a tele type pickup selector 

It has 2 vol no tone.

I put in a different bridge pup, and now when both pups are on its out of phase. Don't want that. Can anyone show a diagram of how it should be wired properly?  Thank you

Your front pickup will have a ground and another colored wire soldered to the volume pot, and it will have a wire going to pin one of the pot.. reverse the positions of the two that aren't the ground, that will put them in phase

Pushback braided vintage style output leads cannot be swapped in this way without adding a huge amount of noise. Who's pickups are you using and in what positions? Also, please share what the output leads are? 3 way Tele switch or 4?

Reverse the ground and the hot on either pickup.

3 way tele, and putting back a GFS mini that sounded surprisingly decent.

GHS Mini in neck or bridge? What's in the other spot?

Unclear kind of from your photo but yes, try the lead swap. Also, I'm unsure toward your neck pickup scene - maybe things got mixed up there? I'm not sure that I see an isolated ground from the 4wire job so I'm curious about that too. Could be magnetism issue as well, which happens more often with pickups sourced from off-shore manufacturers. Use a compass for mag check.

Double-check the wiring. Here's a basic schematic.

Both are gfs.  Will give you  a call/email for ideas for replacing both.

Would be so happy to assist and walk you through it! Holler.

Not trying to hijack, but Josh, could you explain about this a little if you can.

There's a standard with humbuckers regarding magnet polarity/orientation in the pickup; "South" polarity is typically on the coil that is tied to ground, and the North polarity engages the coil wired as hot regarding the pickup output leads. If the magnet was accidentally installed with the polarity switched there, the pickup will then be out of phase when combined with other pickups.

Thanks, I've never heard or seen that talked about.  Appreciate it!

Oh, man... this is a real thing! I made this mistake once too, a long time ago. An "early days" mistake. It's more common with import pickup manufacturers, a real thing, and yah, it happens.

Good to know. Of imports, I’ve had the G&B that the PRS SE comes with, the Indonesian made EMGs (Super 70 and that line) a set of GFS Strat pups and ToneRider.  
Fortunately I haven’t had an issue with any of them.
