while facing the back of the pot, measure the resistance between the leftmost terminal and the rightmost terminal of the three. do not connect to the center terminal (wiper). this resistance reading will be (approx, within 5-10 percent) the value of the pot. imo, don't rely on package markings when you don't have to, as they can be misleading.

yes, installing the wrong value could cause problems.

should be pot need to be de-soldered to be measured? or can measure straight from the pcb it attached?

For an accurate reading you have to measure with the pot out of curcuit, so you have to remove the pot to get a proper Reading on it"s Value...
