ISTR you mentioned it's a new pot with a conductive plastic track. You
might expect poor performance like that from an old carbon pot. I wonder
if there's some contamination. Perhaps clean it out with meths / compressed
air. It seems presently it's unuseable so you've more to gain than lose

Is this a high value resistance that might be picking up electrical noise ?
