Noise from volume controller of a Electrocompaniet ECI5-MKII

Hi guys,I have a 3 year old Electrocompaniet ECI5-MKII integrated amplifier. I experience noise when turning up/down the volume. The volume controller is engine controlled.
Does anybody here have experience with cleaning the volume controller for such an amplifier? Per recommendation, I have bought cleaning fluid from CAIG DeOxit.
Thanks for helping
Cheers, Johnny

Hi there!

I believe I have the same issue with an ECI-3 I recently got second hand. Could you please help me a little bit more?

1. Does it make any difference which CAIG DEOXIT you use (or any other similar product)? For example I found two products available CAIG DEOXIT D5S-6P and CAIG DEOXIT F5 FADERLUBE. 

2. I am not very familiar with the terminology. Is the any possibility to post a photo/video of what needs to be sprayed? :D

Thanks anyway!

Johnny.... the unit comes with blue Alps pot, use the CRAIG attached the straw to the nasal, spray gently on top of the pot ( make sure to have the unit facing upward)  turn the volume control back and forth so that the pot turns freely.   Use a cloth to damp any access.  Let me know if you have any questions.
