Dino Posted December 24, 2005 Report Share Posted December 24, 2005 (edited) I'm trying to replace the toggle swtich in my OLP MM1 guitar and need some help. The guitar has (2) 2-conductor humbucker pickups (1) volume control and the 3-way toggle. The replacement toggle switch that I have is a 3-way, 4-pole switch, and it has a total of 12 terminals on the backside. Here's a link to the exact switch I have ... http://www.guitarelectronics.com/product/SWT36 Does anyone have a wiring diagram that may help? Thanks!

Dino Posted December 25, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 25, 2005 I got it. As usual, you guys were a big help. Merry Christmas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JPL Posted December 25, 2005 Report Share Posted December 25, 2005 There's a bunch of diagrams on the site you listed. Also you can't swing a dead cat without hitting a web site listing common diagrams like that. Merry Christmas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dino Posted December 26, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 26, 2005 If it were as easy as finding it on any website, I would have done so. I have already checked out EVERY wiring diagram on the site above and have done numerous searches .... still nothing. I have a very simple configuration (2-humbuckers, 1-volume, and 3-way toggle). The problem is, this particular switch is obviously made for more complicated applications having 12 terminals. Maybe you could lend me YOUR "dead cat"? You seem to have better luck. I'll figure it out. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thegarehanman Posted December 26, 2005 Report Share Posted December 26, 2005 (edited) Dude, here's your dead cat: your 3p4t switch is just like 4 gibson style leaf switches hooked together. Each row of 3 terminals is a spdt switch, the middle terminal being the common. Just use one set of terminals, the other 3 are unneccessary. peace, russ Edited December 26, 2005 by thegarehanman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JPL Posted December 26, 2005 Report Share Posted December 26, 2005 Sorry, I thought you wanted a diagram. If you aren't able to check with the manufacturer or dealer for more info then maybe a multimeter would help? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
