The control probably needs to be cleaned or replaced. I would suggest you use DeOxit or tuner cleaner. You have to get the stuff into the control for it to work. Then it needs to be rotated back and forth a few times with the power off. Let everything dry out for an hour or two before powering up again.

Absolutely no one is going to reverse engineer that circuit. Even the iron core is missing.RodB — 10:37 AM
