Good job Yogesh, but I think like Albert, changing the switch would have been much better. Thanks for sharing.

I have a habit of letting some silicone oil into the switch, without even desoldering it; have had some good results so far.

This article makes me appreciate the skill and patience for small simple things. And that there is no substitute for time spent.

Hi Yogesh, good to know that it is possible to clean a not working switch with Isopropyl Alcohol. But I myself would probably have just replaced the bad switch by another good working switch. Maybe I can safe the trouble next time by using your method? But it still requires me to desolder the switch and place it in alcohol. By-the-way: I've tried cleaning Xbox360 GPU/CPU processor's from their cooling Thermal Paste with Alcohol. And that is just not working! In such cases Terpentine works fantastic to get rid of the old Paste very easily!
