Where exactly does that ground wire connect to the tonearm? It may be that it has come loose fron the arm.

Try this: Remove the tonearm ground connection from the chassis where it is connected with the screw. How has the noise changed now?

Use another piece of wire, just for a test, and temporarily connect it from the tonearm to the chassis. How has the noise changed now?
