Can Pot Be Fixed/Cleaned
The volume pot is from a '74 Zenith TV and it doesn't act the way a normal dirty pot would (or at least from my limited experience). All pots I've dealt with before that are "dirty" have the signature "scratchy" sound when rotating it. This one isn't really scratchy, it's more unstable in volume level as I'm rotating it. As I turn it up, it gets louder, but then starts to get muffled and if I wiggle it, it goes in and out. Once I get it to the level I want, I wiggle it until it stays, but sometimes gets muffled again. Is this a sign of being dirty, or is it damage to the pot's internals?
I'm hoping it is fixable as all searches for a replacement have come up empty. Thanks!
