I'm putting together a Tele (an old neck, Squire body, brand new pickups, and a new control plate that's already wired up with new pots and a 3-way switch).
Everything's fine, except at the middle position, I don't get anything. How am I shorting this out? Thanks in advance.

With the 3-way switch in the middle position, I should be getting a signal mix from both pickups, right?

This is a new-fangled switch with all 8 poles on one side, not the usual 4 on each side.
