Hi Guys,

I have an old amp/tuner that needs a light replaced behind the small display window, and all the controls, but particularly the volume control, have lots and lots of crackle. Can this be fixed, easily?

I saw this, from Andre:

Some servisol switch cleaner to all pots and swiches....and she may be just fine.Try this first:)

Where do I buy servisol? And how, exactly, do I apply it?
What is a pot?  :help: (Is it the round metal "control" thingy on the inside of where there is a knob on the outside?) And do I just spray the servisol into this "pot"?
And where do I go looking for the light? Zakspeed?

I am in Durbanville, Cape Town.

All advice greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Johan
