Flipper switch question

hi guys

Just got FH back together having replaced the flipper cab switches and the double stack switch is only firing both flippers at once. It's firing on the second switch.

It's my understanding that the bottom flipper should fire on the first switch then on pressing further, the upper switch should also fire.

Any clues as to why.
It's wired as follows
Front lug (shorter switch): Orange
Middle lug; black
Rear lug: blue.

As always, any help much appreciated
Cheers

The orange is the common and should go to the middle lug.
Blue to the first make switch, black to the second.

what you've got at the moment is the first make switch shorts the flippers together, then the second make switch powers them.
 
Boring I know, but I photograph everything on my ipad before I remove it so I can put back in the correct order
