Exclamation [Help!] Analog readings go crazy!

Hey everyone,
This year our robot uses 2 potentiometers and today after a defense cross both of them started jumping between readings like crazy with no pattern.
We had this problem before and the last time it happened because of a badly connected micro-switch which caused this problem when it was pressed.
This time we have disconnected all of the DIOs but it didn't help.
We tested the potentiometers' resistance and they work just fine...

We compete tomorrow and we worry that the same problem might occur on our competition robot.
What may cause it? Please help us.
Thank you.
