    What causes sticky hard to press buttons on Milltronics controls.

    What causes sticky hard to press buttons on Milltronics controls and what can I do to get them to work better? I thought maybe removing the plastic button and spraying a contact cleaner may work. Anyone know a better way? Someone said my keypad might be going bad but I do not think that is the problem there.
    Thanks

    I think the contact cleaner is the right way to go. Test a small area to make sure it doesn't eat the plastic.

    Wondering if WD 40 would be OK...I have sprayed some of that and the button works a lil better but at times it still needs to be pushed hard I am hoping someone might have a sugggestion on what might be better to use. Seems also if you push in the upper right hand corner that helps...Shruggs.
