Sticky buttons are usually do to dust and dirt in the controller. So washing is a good idea like they mentioned here. Unless you have money to waste, it's probably the best choice.

umm... duh, put it in the dishwasher.

Lube it up.

what about the rubber pad under the button? maybe it's wearing out too along with the dirt and dust in the controller. Try not to eat while playing video game, especially chips.

not only are the screws torx..... they are those security type with the peg in the middle.... now I have to buy another set.... grah. I am half way to the cost of another controller at this point.

[Fatal Rose]

Have you lubed it up yet inky?

[Inky]

[L.S.D]

[Inky]

Just on the topic of porn and sticky controllers... doesn't the 360 come with the remote control for that very reason?? What were you thinking?

[Inky]

I got the 2nd release that didn't come with a remote...

and I'll have you know the sticky controller is NOT porn related LOL.

i have no idea how it happened. one of my kids with sticky candy fingers prolly
