Just put in a new set of custom made 65 pickups and I am getting a weird noise. The selector makes a clicking noise when moved and the pickups "pickup" the noise from the pick when I hit the pickup cover or even the pickguard next to it! Also when I hit the pickup screws. Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

It looks that you have a ground problem.

Ground wire missing or bad solder

Don't know, it only does it with the positions 1,2,3,4 but the bridge is normal. Could it still be a bad ground/wire?

Yes, bad ground somewhere. or reverse positive and negatif (ground) wire.

Go to Fender.com for guitar diagram and check all your wiring.
