950 Volume knob not working well

When i use the volume knob on the 950 to try to turn the volume down it sometimes does nothing and often goes up. Any ideas?

Yep, mine's been doing the same thing for about a year...very annoying, but I just use the remote instead. Aside from that, the unit has held up quite well over the past five years.

I have two units with this issue, 950 and 1050. I bought them used this way, with the volume knob not giving the response expected, mostly going up when turning the knob either way, but if I push it in, I can get some semblance of control. I've read the old posts and decided to dig into my 1050. This is what I found- The volume control on the inner face board was loose at the crimps. I unhooked the crimps, cleaned the contacts with Caig De-Oxit and a toothbrush (gently), bent the contacts out slightly (being very careful), reassembled everything and VOILA! Back to normal. Took me about an hour and a half, mostly because the faceplate is glued to the inner panel around the display and I hunted for hidden screws and such. I didn't want to use brute force, but that's what it took. Now on to the 950... Anyone brave enough to try this can contact me for hints or help. kve777@gmail.com Kevin.

Just did my 950, volume works fine, only took 20 minutes. Much easier than the 1050. Contacts in the volume control were not contacting the tone wheel properly. Cleaned, lubed and carefully added tension to the contacts. Done.
