Trying to repair a Hyperkin Duke Xbox controller where the left trigger doesn't respond. Found that the resistance of this potentiometer doesn't change when it's moved, so I'm looking to replace it. I'm a novice with this stuff though and I'm having trouble identifying it. Any help is appreciated.

There's a test pad on the PCB labeled "LT" (left trigger). I used that and compared it's resistance to ground to that of the right trigger's test pad. I got about 6-10k ohms on the working one (right trigger), and 3.9-4.4 on this one.
