Hi there are two possible influences: 1.) The powerconsumption of th LFOs LED might draw too much current, and have an influence on the supply rail. 2.) The LFO-signal itself is feeding through the potentiometer (corroded ground contact of the potentiometer, broken solder joint at the potentiometer). To check #1: desolder one pin of the LED and check whether the modulations still happens. To check #2: shorten the modulation signal coming from the potentiometer manually to ground. or remove R148 and R164 on the mainboard.
