I've undone my Super3 and forgot where two of the wires go! Gahh!
The "Tele" style has one Volume, one TBX Tone, 3-way toggle, and Coil Tap.
How is my Super 3 bridge pickup supposed to be wired?

I've got the official diagrams posted on the main website, Bo. Just go to the background page and click on Wiring Diagrams.

That's where I just came from and the diagram is a bit vague to me.
It only shows, if I'm seeing correctly, 3 wires coming from the Rear Pickup.
One wire goes to the selector switch (white), another goes to the Coil Tap (color??), another goes to Ground on the Volume pot (Green AND Bare?)

I dug out the wiring info that came with the Super 3
Will this work? Tying the Black and White wires together going to the Coil Tap? Then Green and Bare to Ground on the Volume pot?

Looks right to me, if the Super 3 has Dimarzio codes and not weird OEM codes.
IIRC my HM with Super 3 has 3 wires. One of those will be a split wire going to the switch (one wire acting as the white and black wires).

Ok, well, this is the data I'm going to use, since it's consistent with what I'm seeing inside my actual HM.
I know where the Red and White/Black wires went, I just didn't know where to put the Green and Bare, but I'll put those both to Ground on the Volume pot.
My White/Black wire went to the Coil Tap, unlike the official schematic from Fender. Maybe it doesn't matter.?

How did that work out, Bo?

Strange.
All my three of my Super 3's have 5 wires: White, Black, Red, Green, Bare.
Two are aftermarket, and one came stock in my Purple HM, which is the one described above.
Anywho, I'm pretty sure I put it back the way it was.
Anyone think it matters if the White/Black wire goes to the Coil Tap instead of the Selector, as shown in the "Official" diagram?

I could open my redstone to see what's what and post a pic if you like. Let me know.

I'm not sure this is a stock HS anymore. I had pics of it before I molested it, by replacing the Lace sensor in the neck position, but I'll be danged if I can locate it. I may have removed the coil tap from the rear pickup's loop. Hope this helps.
