Hi i have been giving a 1999-2000 MIM 70's Reissue Strat. Its wood tone and had a black pick guard. My friend gave it to me because it didn't work. The wiring was all funky. So i rewired it use this diagram.

It fixed it a little bit. But the Switch positions on the very top and very bottom don't work. I thought it was the switch so i went out and bought a replacement 5 way switch. But that didn't fix it. I don't know what the problem is, can someone please help me i just wanna get this bad boy back in operation.

Sounds to me like the guitar has two dead pickups -- neck and bridge.

Disconnect them both from the circuit and measure each's DC resistance with a DVM......you should see about 6.9 KΩ for the bridge and 6.6 KΩ for the neck.

okay I'll check then, but if it's in the middle position all three will make nosie.
