Vintage modified jazzmaster wiring question

[kwynsi]

Hello everyone. This is my first thread I believe. I've been reading the blogs for years and have learned so much, thanks everyone. I have a dearmond humbucker that I want to put in the bridge position on my jm. It has one lead coming out of it. The pots are 500. Can someone help me out with how to properly wire it into the mix? I tried wiring it up the way the stock pickup was, but it didn't make a sound when I plugged it up. Neck pickup had sound on all three positions on the selector. Thanks in advance for the help

Ok now I've got it working, but the humbucker sounds really thin and it is way more quiet volume wise than the neck pickup, also there is no difference between the middle position and the bridge posistion sound wise when using the three way selector
