Tremolo intensity changes volume levels

I recently acquired a Rhodes 78 suitcase with the Janus cabinet.

I was running into the issue that the left side of the cabinet was not working.  I had another Rhodes in here and plugged it in and it seemed to work (long story short I realized it was actually a fuse on the Janus cabinet that was blown - but not before changing some of the capacitors and removing the R4 resistor to test)

The Rhodes always worked though and the tremolo seemed to be working but just no left speaker.

I changed the fuse and plugged it in.  All of a sudden, now the tremolo intensity affects only the volume and the tremolo doesn't work (LED is still on though).

Has anyone seen this issue before?

Any help is appreciated.  Checked all my soldering points and nothing is bridging, as well as cleaned with contact cleaner.

I'm at a loss.

The other Rhodes I have here, it's tremolo works fine with the cabinet..

Best,
Marcello
