Preamp Trouble

Hey Talkbass! I got a conundrum: Tonight a friend and I were modifing my ray5 Sterling SUB 5 String bass. I wanted to put in a Bartolini DL5CBC pick up with a Tone Capsule bass preamp from DarkGlass. We wired it up and there is absolutely no signal coming through. We checked connections with the multimeter and everything checked out. We tried to wire it so that the low and high mid were controlled by a stacked pot. I grabbed inspiration from this video: please let me know what you all think we did wrong!
