will this spray fix a noisy volume control? volume control makes popping sound when I turn up and down the volume

(1) If you are merely touching the controls and popping sounds occur, then that is a shielding or grounding problem.(2) I have used this spray and similar sprays for scratchy volume and tone controls on guitars, bass guitars, and amplifiers. Those controls are all potentiometers (pots). If you can spray inside the pots, then this spray will probably fix it.(3) Before and after using any pot-cleaning spray, you should move the pots repeatedly and rapidly from 0 to 10 to see if that fixes the scratch. Just spraying this on won't magically fix the scratchiness. You need to remove the corrosion/dust/build-up and work the spray in.

It worked for me on my old Vintage Soundcraftsmen Pre-Amp great, and it was pretty bad. My units are more than 35 years old, and I used this stuff on all of them and no more noise. I don't know how bad is your unit, but it is worth a shot. Don't use it the way it is now, you will damage it for good!!! Good luck!!!

It most likely will help but better yet they have a spray specifically for potentiometers and such, or at least they used to.

Mine did the same thing. I didn't ever figure out how to fix it. Then the volume knob quit working correctly.

I might be getting noise from having your settings too high. Try turning everything down all the way except the volume and see if it goes away

If the audio device is turned on with volume it will pop. Best to connect with out volume or power turned on

The volume control works but the lowest setting is still kind of loud. I have a dell that I hook it up to

It's much easier to turn your phone volume up the control volume using the + or - on the sound pop. push once do not leave the + or - button down

Sorry to be the banter of bad news, but it does sound as though you have a defective unit. The good news is you are still under warranty. Do not waste another minute; call the store where you bought it and have it returned. This device is a no brainer; you plug it up, turn it on and watch it go...the spray should work with ease and percision. Buying defective items does happen in life; sorry you had to experience that. Best wishes with everything.

I've only used it twice. The "popping" should stop after about 20 secs., and before it is used. It is a steam processor, so it does sound like a toy train engine. If it's stronger than that, there could be a problem.

The recoil only stops when you're at the end of the line. It's spring-loaded and the inline volume control will recoil through the mechanism. It's fine if you don't mind that happening.

My phone volume works just fine with the Sound PoP. As stated previously it may be a phone issue.

Yes, I've never had a problem. The device has volume adjustment so if there is noise you can turn it up very easily.

Mine made the same sound. I replaced the actuator and it fixed the problem.

Mine, too, made a loud pop every time I turned it on. However, it was working otherwise until it lost connection to the subwoofer and started making the clicking (or popping) noise every second or so. None of my ideas for addressing the problem worked except for returning the unit to Amazon, which I am doing.

Make sure the spray bottle is pushed all the way down. It clicks when it is in correctly. If there is still an issue get a replacement.

There's a part you can twist near the nozzle, while I'm not sure of the exact function of this part, just twist that and it should fix the noise.

yes. twist the volume knob all the way to the left. it feels like you are breaking it. but thats the off
