I just replaced the MIM pickups with Vintage Noiseless tele pickups and found that the bridge pickup is way lower volume than the neck. I followed the diagram with the only exception being that the MIM tele has a 1) ground connection to body, 2) the underside of the bridge and then a ground wire running to the 3) volume pot.

Fender sent me a replacement bridge pickup, but the new one sounds exactly the same. I also replace the 3-way switch thinking that I may have burned it out with my soldering iron, but still the same results.

Any thoughts? (would be very appreciated)

Adjust pickups height to have same output or the output you want.

There is no other way.
