dennismiller55 4,717 Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 Blow canned air into the pot's vents while cycling the knob. If that does not work then spray some DeoxIt Fader Lube into the vents while cycling the knob. Let it dry overnight. If that does not work then replace the volume pot. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Question for you Dennis, on using canned air that I've always wondered. Is there a trick to preventing the air from condensing, and developing moisture in this process? Or is it short burst, turn the pot back and forth, then another short burst? as in the short-bursts not generating the condensation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dennismiller55 4,717 Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 I find that if I keep the can upright then just dry air comes out. If I tilt and spray then liquid air comes out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
