minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink2•9 months agoDid you try cleaning them with deoxit? That stuff works wonders on crunchy pots. Might be an easy fix!
minus-squaresilly goose meekahlink1•9 months agoI’m not sure, a friend of mine sprayed some stuff on them a few years ago. helped for a while but now it’s back to how it was before
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink1•9 months agoHmmm that sounds like it might have been deoxit. It’s worth trying again, but it can only do so much, eventually the resistive track just wears away. If you need to solder in replacements, I wrote up a short starter suggestion comment elsewhere in this thread.
