Guitar Problem (Not fixed) (Read description)

Song is Pink Floyd - San Tropez
UPDATE: I switched all the neg/pos so it's like it's supposed to be. Also I put the Duckbucker in series for more output but it's still quiet. I also adjusted the pickup height so it's bearable, but the SSL-5 and Duckbucker are really high and the neck pickup is really low.
I just replaced the middle and bridge pickups in my MIM 2008 standard HSS Strat. I put a SD Duckbucker in the middle and a SD SSL-5 in the bridge, I left the neck pickup stock. Anyways I'm getting very low output from the Duckbucker and SSL-5, like I have my amp turned to 8 and it sounds like its on 5. The stock fender pickup in the neck seems like it's the right output. I tried it on another amp and it was still low output so it's not the amp. When I first opened up the guitar it looked different than all the diagrams I've studied. Same parts, same amount of wires, just wired differently. Here's a diagram of what it use to look like. http://www.fender.com/support/diagra...700_02CPg2.pdf
I just rewired it to look like this, except the the humbucker is in the middle. http://www.seymourduncan.com/support...1h_2s_1v_2t_5w
The tone seems to sound fine, just really quiet. I checked the resistance on all the connections and they were all about 00.6 ohms. I guess this is normal because if I check the resistance on two ends of a wire it's 00.6.

Nice, never tried doing any mods on my guitars. Looks good to me though and if it's real quiet I would also think you soldered it up good. Some of my guitars like my wolfgang are kind of noisy an need more noise gate to keep it down. While my Ibanez tends to be very quite barely needs a noise gate.
