Newby seeking help- Volume pot/wiring issue

[Stratcat22]

My first instrument. Strat with Fralin Blender pot, treble bleed circuit. Fender Tex-Mex pickups. Everything seems to work fine except volume control does not work. I detect a slight change in timbre when swept toward zero, but no change in volume (assume from bleed circuit). Schematic used was the one posted on Lindy Fralin site. I have checked continuity and did not find any bad solder connections. Would love any help I can get in solving this- hope I've provided enough details.

Not being a d!ck but something is wrong. Looking at the pot from the back does the right leg read grounded?

Of course omething is wrong, and no, you're not being a dick. Yes, it is reading grounded. I re-soldered the connections to the V pot, will update if any change. I've rewired strats before, so I have some soldering experience as far as copying the exact circuit, but know ZERO about electronics in general. This is my first attempt at wiring from scratch, so I'm certain I did something wrong. I use the volume control extensively in my playing so I have to figure this out- hoping some experts can help. If not, if anyone knows a competent tech in Charlotte NC area please let me know!

Do you have the volume pot connected to ground? Also make sure you solder a ground wire between each pot and the output jack. Don't rely on the control plate to ground everything.
