Could be...measure across the two outer terminals and see if you get anything close to the rated resistance. If not, then you have a problem.
Preferably using an analog VOM, measure between the center terminal and one of the outer terminals. Holding the test leads in place (alligator clips come in handy here), slowly turn the control from one end to the other. If the resistance does not change smoothly but jumps open here and there...then you have a problem.
