Okay so I used a little WD40 to clean the volume pot it made one change, instead of a changing higher volume now I get just one volume level. I was able to remove the cover off of the rear and could see the contacter running on some type of material that appeared to be loose. Not really sure if it is damaged somehow because I don't know whats inside the volume control.
