Attention Weirdy and other electronic gurus!!

Just tested the coils, looks like we had them mixed up
Green and white
Black and red
Both connections showing about 4800

I just tested the single coil to ensure that was fine, and it is, showing about 5700, however the humbucker is not showing anything at all.
What am I doing wrong?

Zandit, assuming this is the humbucker you got 4.8k for green/white and black and red, try joining green/white together and test black and red or vice versa. You need to test the ends of each of the single coils that make up the humbucker if that makes sense.
With both coils of the humbucker you should get a reading of about 9.6k

Sorry Wokka, the 4 coloured wires are for a single hot stack which is in the middle position.
I have a humbucker in the bridge position, and I can't get a reading out of it.
I tried two other humbuckers I have, and neither of them are showing any reading. They are all standard two wire HB.

Hi Zandit, that's strange no reading in both 2 wire humbuckers. I would try chopping the bare wire off the ends and strip the insulation and try testing that in case the bare wire has been damaged. So I presume you are using the good multimeter from work ?

Also check if both wires from both humbuckers look damaged. Maybe your dogs have chewed them haha

Good luck !

Yep, did that to all humbuckers. Not sure why I'm not getting a reading.

that's strange Zandit, have you got any other humbuckers you can test ?
My guess is they are damaged internally and one or both wires have come loose from the connection point.

I have three all together, and as I said, all tested negative on the multi meter.
Now, just to muddy the water even further, I used a lead plugged into an amp, touched the negative and positive ends on all three humbuckers and then tapped the top of the HB with a screw driver. All three made noise!!!
I've got no idea what is going on!

Is the MM autoranging or do you have it set to a specific Ohm range, as in 10K?

yes Zandit what resistance setting are you using ? on mine I set it to 20k. If on the wrong setting the reading may be too small to register a reading above zero.
