Power on switch repair.
The continuity was not being made, despite the potentiometer ON-OFF action was working fine in mechanical terms,
I have opened the potentiometer by using a drill bit to unlock the copper rivets. The problem was caused by the spring copper contacts not making contact anymore. I just had to bend the copper contacts a little bit and reassemble.
