Disconnect only what's going to the negative (low end) lug. Measure from that lug to the wiper lug, and rotate the control stop-to-stop. The meter should show a smoothly-changing ohms value, from very low to very high. (The wiper is the middle lug between the bottom and top-end lugs.)

Or does the meter show open circuit (infinite resistance) thru the full range of rotation?
