Left bumper button is mushy and has no click, also unresponsive.

so i bought a used switched the the left joycon had a bunch of white stuff in and around the button like the last person spilled something on it and didnt try to clean it. i took it apart and cleaned it but its still mushy and doesnt work i was wondering if there is anyway to fix it without buying a new one. i’d buy a new button but idk if its just the button or more. ( also i should note everything els about the left joycon works perfectly just the left bumper doesnt work )

Hi!

You need to open it up and clean it (watch the springs). Worst case: Button needs to be replaced.
