If it is shorted replace it as it can destroy the rectifier tube and power transformer if left shorted to the chassis. Other things to have a look at are the 41 socket (shorts from pins 2 or 3 to ground) bad rubber connecting to those pins. Bad cap from pin 2 to ground or tone sw.
Any chance I can find where the contact is being made and insulate it? Or is it better to just replace entirely?
