Only check this with new strings, played-in strings will lie to you.

With new strings, set the string to pick up gap to the same distance for all four strings with a small ruler and see where you're at. If active, be sure your 9v is good.

A 'more dead than the others' string/pickup issue could have several reasons, none of which we can see over the internet. But I'd start with the two steps above.

If it is the pickup and they’re symmetrical you could turn one around and see if the issue moves to the G string.
