It sounds like it could be an internal pot issue. I hope not for your sake
as they are a pain to break open and replace but doable. It all depends on
how long yours has been out in the wx. I found once I got my apart that I
also had to replace a bunch of bearings, but that was nearly 10 years ago
and so far so good.

Before you go doing this though mKe sure that your wife connections topside
are solid. I've also had problems with that more than once. They can work
loose.

Good luck
