One thing I am sort of wondering about, and I can get pictures of this if you need it: I'm noticing that the pot doesn't have the standard three lugs. Instead, it has one that goes to C2D/the main PCB, and two that connect to ground. That matches the schematic just fine, but since this is unusual, is there anything I should be watching out for as I disassemble?
That just means it is configured as a variable resistor instead of a variable voltage divider...One benefit of this configuration is if one of the end lugs is open but center never goes open you can make the open end lug the grounded one and continue to use it(max and min vs rotation may swap).
