The control tested good out of circuit.

Is the sams a mistake or do I need to track down a wire wound pot?
Remove it and take it apart. See if there's carbon tracking inside.
I looked up the schematics on the CTC7,9 and 10. The CTC7 shows a pot as well as the CTC9, the 10 and newer has a coil.
The CTC7 only shows an RCA part number.
