Hi. my father found this oscilloscope on a dumpster visit, and it was working, just dirty. I decided to do a "retro bright", with worked first time that I did it on my life. The problem now that its unstable, was almost unusable until yesterday that I removed and cleaned a "serial precision resistor" it seems (see on attachments), don't know how its called. I work with reballing GPUs and such, so no so much my area but I like to learn.
I found the Voltcraft AO 610 schematic and some photos, they are very similar, maybe mine is a cheaper clone:

https://www.mikrocontroller.net/topic/515171https://www.eserviceinfo.com/downloadsm/234286/Voltcraft_AO-610.htmlThe "serial precision resistor" its not present on the Voltcraft schematic, it seems that in replace they used a opamp circuit based on CA3140. Don't know if the resistors are better than this method. Its visible on the 4.jpg, that I linked above and in the schematic (search by 3140)
In attachments there are some photos that I took from my oscilloscope.
The problem is, from my understand, when I change voltage divisions value, the line should stay on same place, but it goes up or down, sometimes stuck so low or so high that I cant even scroll more on X position.
I was thinking on make a replica from schematic of Voltcraft, and disactivate this block where they used this presion resistor... What do you guys suggest? I cleaned everything, multiple times, changed the pots, still the same.
