The contacts on the volume encoder are dirty. The only fix for it is to take it off of the board, open it up and clean the contacts. You need to be pretty handy with electronics in order to pull this off. I don't think you can find a replacement encoder any more. Sony bought Aiwa years ago, but doesn't really support the product with parts anymore.

before you replace it and remove the old knob , look at how the wires are connected and snip the so you have a little color showing. Now , with the new knob you just attach the wires back to the location they were in on the old knob.
Hi, You have in days gone by what were called dirty pots ( short for potentiometers or variable resistor ) that's the name of the actual component for the volume control. It is a pretty easy repair actually, it just involves taking the cover off the stereo ( always do this with the unit unplugged ) then you will see where the volume knob enters the case-there will be a metal round device connected to it, that is your volume control ( pot ) There could be more than one, in a stacked configuration, so when you find that-use some " electronic contact cleaner " CRC is a popular brand-or even WD-40 will work ( although it may unduly attract dust in the future ) spray into the gap nearest where the wires are soldered to it-then quickly turn knob all the way up then down several times to be sure to push any un-washed away debri to the ends of the volume range. That will do it I'm 99.9 percent sure, thank you for asking FixYa, write back and let me know how the Crown sounds then. Good luck Prodzilla
I have a delongi oven and hob hob is working fine but the oven isnot im turning the nob on the front of the oven and ignition on lighting is fine after I release the knob on the front the supply turns striaght off no flame no gas nothing
you will have to open the unit up if under warrenty take back to shop! your volume nob needs replcing as inside its shorted out. Maplins or RS componets. For the effort involved you may want to buy a new radio. :-)
Press and hold the volume knob until the display shows clock adjust.
use the forward and rewind serch buttons (the small arrow buttons next to the volume nob) to switch hour and minute.
use the volume knob to adjust the time. When done press the volume knob to return to normal operation.
I just picked up one at the dump. You have to take apart the front end by unscrewing screws and pulling out ribbon edge connections. It is easier than some components. Then pry off two of the small clamp downs on the front of the volume potentiometer; pry apart about 1/32 of an inch and spray control cleaner for a second and clamp down. repeat on other side.
worked for me.
