This isn't a difficult fix but there is not such thing as an OEM potentiometer. You're in over your head. Just take it to a pro. You're looking at an hour of bench time, tops. The pot itself will be another $10~.

Turns out its a non-solder one that plugs into a circuit board. I knew the pot plugged in that way but figured Id have to solder the wires on. Fixes the soldering issue, but from the company its a $27 pot and I have the knob to replace also. Maybe I can get a cheaper pot and resolder the wires onto it.

Did the knob actually crack/split, and are you absolutely certain it no longer functions? If it's just that the knob fell off you could use something to pry that metal back into shape so it still holds the knob.

The knob is in many pieces, I have no clue how it even happened, it like shattered. The pot is still functional, I just dont know how to pry it back and have it be straight enough. I do really want a new matching knob.
