Yea you probably have the sub turned the wrong way and its messing you up. The only other thing I can think of is that there are 2 positives on one side and 2 negatives on the other side, but I doubt that.

The diagram you show above is an illustration. It doesn't necessarily have the polarity of the coils in the exact locations as your particular sub does. When drawing a diagram, you can put things anywhere you want to (just take a look at some of my diagrams ;#). Just follow the wiring lines shown in the diagram and attach each end to the polarity the diagram shows.

Any coil will have both a positive and a negative terminal. Make sure you first identify each set of coil terminals before you start connecting wires.

Build the box so that it performs well in the worst case scenario and, in return, it will reward you at all times.
