    I doubt this to be relevant to your situation, but I've had a similar problem that I just could not figure out... I suspected a loose solder joint somewhere but I went over every joint and it wasn't that.

    Turns out I'd over-tightened the nuts holding one of the pots in and it didn't like it. Loosened the nut on the problem pot and that resolved the issue.

    As I said, probably one in a million for that to have been the problem, but it's free and easy to test.

    Failing that, I'd suggest finding a multimeter to start testing continuity, while following the wiring diagram, that the good doctor provided above.

    I've been there and done it too, it's a very easy mistake to make, overtightening the mounting nut for the pots, I seem to remember doing that once and ruining a perfectly good pot, I also seem to remember muttering some pretty "colourful" words after I had realized what I had done too, complete with feelings of utter embarrassment.

    Hi All, Did you know that Kronig Supply are the Pure Tone exclusive distributor in Australia / NZ. We keep every model of PureTone jacks onshore in Sydney including barrel and panel mount. Also, spare nuts (if you need them to adjust the protrusion). Ask your local guitar shop to contact us and we can ship them usually same business day.

    P.S. Let me know if we are not allowed an "advertising post" but I feel it is in the interests of members to know that they don't have to wait for overseas shipments of PureTone (and SquarePlug, and G&H)
