I removed the potmeter and opened it. One slider runs fine between o and 15k. The other slider sticks to 15 k till half way. The  carbon track is damaged.
Again, where to find a 15k potmeter with a long bushing?

They are near impossible to find these days.

Sometimes if you’re very careful you can bend the wiper over just enough to ride on untouched resistance trace.

I have a 10K out of a K300 pA I can send you?
