JVC KD-G420 CD Player

JVC KD-G420 turns off

About a month ago this started-when I adjust the volume, the ATT (mute) kicks in. I just thought I was accidentally pressing the button as I was turning it, but the problem has increased. Now I am unable to touch the volume knob without activating the ATT or having the unit turn off. It also happens without me touching the unit at all. I have only had it for about a year, but I have no warranty and was told by Best Buy that I would need to get a whole new stereo. I took it apart and cleaned the circuits with alcohol and attempted boosting up the connect points so they would have greater contact. Any other suggestions would be helpful. I have no stereo experience but feel confident tinkering.

same problem, turn the knob to raise the volume and it either mutes or turns off.  Sometimes, and it seems to be random, I get lucky and am able to turn it up a little but then then it jumps to mute or shut off. pretty frustrating
