I have recapped 6 WG monitors (a small number for some people here, I'm
sure, but its an impressive number to me), and I have never seen the pot on
the HV cage go bad, and I now leave it in.
Of course, since it is simply a variable resistor, you can remove it from
the circuit and measure resistances across the pins, and then twist the new
one to match, and THEN put the new one in. I did this the first few cap kits.
OF course, this also assumes that the monitor was working pretty OK before
the the cap kit, or before someone else started screwing with it. If its
setting was screwed up by someone attempting to fix it in the past, then
all bets are off.
Virtually,
Warr
