relubricate with grease after it had dried.



What kinda grease? Lithium grease (I got handy)?



White lithium grease is probably fine.

Hi,
Lubriplate grease or spray(if it does not attack plastic housing) from
electronics parts store like old radio shack(it's called Sosurce now up
here in Canada). Think that push button toggle switch spring inside is
getting old.
