You will see the order of the wire colour in the Molex connector is different for each pickup, but the pin layout on the circuit board for each connector is actually the same.

I may have the plugs I cut off mine which you could solder to the BK's, I'll check when I get home.

Thanks for that Mr Badger. I did notice the different colour order and assumed it was something to do with the out-of-phase switching (or some such). Sod's law I fuck this up...

Yes, Danny. Yes it does... :thumbup:
