      I checked the resistance on that new pot . And I got some odd   
   readings ... I get 21k maxed out one side and 46k the other side .   
   Outside terminal to outside I get the 47k plus/minus . THis may or may   
   not have something to do with output not matching set point . The other   
   pot measures 47k+- maxed out both ways . I'm having a hard time   
   understanding the different values , AFAIK these all use a single wiper   
   center contact so I should be getting the same reading from either side   
   when maxed out .
