X button sticks slightly

X button is harder to press and stays down for half a second, took it apart and cleaned it with isopropyl. Worked great until I used it for about an hour. Same problem, cleaned again. Working for now but I need a more permanent less time consuming solution.

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

Hi there!

Yeah, cleaning is basically the solution for this. However, if the issue remains after cleaning, then you might want to replace some components.

I would replace the “X” button and the rubber pad as well. Replacing those should deal with the sticky button right away.
