Hi Stephan
Looking at the diagram, that's similar to others I have looked at, it seems to be wired like that on simple inspection ... one Humbucker to 1 & 6, the other to 3 & 8, and the middle to 2. However ... I think the hots might be to the 6 & 8 (red currently), rather than the 1 & 3 (green). But that primarily sets the phase doesn't it?
What does seem different is that for each of mine, the black and white from each are braided together, but hanging free. The SD wiring suggests connecting them to 6 & 8. And the greens currently go to the switch, but should be to earth? Might that give me the full humbuckers in 1 & 5 positions?
Your alternative uses them connected to the switching ... that gives the coil split?
Like you suggest ... find the multimeter?
