Fixing flaky buttons
I have a bunch of aging instruments I need to tune up. One common
problem with these things is the buttons become flaky over time. (I'm not sure what the name for this kind of button is, but what I'm talking about is a "stateless" push button, which functions like a computer keyboard key. It is typically used to increment a number or move a cursor or something. You push it and it moves the cursor one space. You push it again to get another space. Often, if you hold it down, a repeat kicks in after a delay of a half second or so.) Over time, the contacts inside the button become dirty or oxidized or whatever and the button becomes flaky. You have to push hard to get a response, or you get multiple responses from one push, etc. If I can get the button open, I can usually improve it by cleaning it with alcohol, but sometimes even that doesn't completely fix the problem. Does anyone here have tips for this kind of thing? I'd especially like to know if there are tricks for fixing these without opening the buttons up. There are a lot of different kinds of buttons and some are hard to open and some take me a while to figure out how to open. |

The best remedy I have found is WD-40. Use the nozzle tube and apply a small amount right to the small gap where the actuator protrudes from the housing. Then rapidly & repeatedly push the actuator about 20-30 times. You may have to apply the '40 more than once. And of course, clean the PCB afterwards. I assume it's the foaming action of the WD-40 that allows it to get to the contacts in the switch. At any rate, it usually does the trick. |

As I said, use only a small amount of the product, applied right where it is needed. And cleaning up afterwards. We're talking about miniature switches, handling only keyscan pulses from a processor. And I certainly wouldn't expect or recommend using it where higher power circuits are involved. It's just that I can't visualize a small amount of WD-40 on the surface of a pcb causing a problem. |

As one career tech to another, I'm sure you can see my point. I sometimes forget that the "advice" to a novice servicer can get waaaay out of hand. I stand corrected. But do you know of ANY chemical product that would behave similarly, I.e. penetrate to the carbon button & contacts, that wouldn't leave a residue? I would be leery to use any aggressive solvents. |

The best I have ever found is/was a product from Philips called Contact Cleaner 390CCS, tho it does leave an oily film. I`m told that this is no longer available. I`m down to my last can, so if anyone knows who stocks it I`d be obliged. Our 'leftpodian' friends seem to swear by Caig products for switch and pot cleaning, tho I dont thnk they are easily available on this side of the pond. A little touch of neat isopropanol is probably safest. Ron(UK) -- Lune Valley Audio Public Address Systems Hire Sales Maintenance www.lunevalleyaudio.com |

At the risk of (re)starting a WD40 war: WD40 is a blend of waxes and solvents. It is very good at DISSOLVING numerous kinds of polymers...such as those used to make flexible keypads, sealing electrolytic capacitors, moulding complex mechanical parts, adhesives, etc. WD40 has been found to be capable of dissolving (literally) the resistor material used in SOME potentiometers (linear and rotary), glue used to hold complex switches in assembly, and the conductivity-enhancing black coating on some IR remocon PCBs. It takes only a fraction of a drop to do any of this. Given enough time, residue (wax) from a WD40 coating will attract enough ambient dust to form conductive paths where the designer did not intend them to be, thus destroying components. WD40 is a good TEMPORARY solution for squeaking door hinges...temporary because WAX IS NOT A LUBRICANT. WD40 can do nothing positive for electronic equipment other than hasten its replacement. IAW: You don't recall re-serviceing anything because of WD40 because the next failure was probably so catestrophic that the item went to the dustbin as soon as the smoke cleared. Don't misunderstand...I'm a WD40 enthusiast. I have a 1-gallon tin of the stuff under my work bench for use as a cleaner...because it is the best I've found for cutting heavy grease, adhesive tape residue, and rinsing crap out of tiny ball-bearings. Just don't ever think of it as a "contact cleaner" or "tuner cleaner." It isn't. |

At the risk of firing another "shot" that will spark the next WD-40 war, I feel compelled to speak again on the subject. In hindsight, I can see that an amateur or novice technician might get carried away using '40. But to an experienced tech, it can be a good product. And your implication that the literally tens of thousands of products I have serviced "went up in smoke", I find somewhat offensive. I am a quality technician, I have extensive training, and I successfully serviced most types of consumer electronic equipment from digital camcorders to vacuum-tube ham radios. I did not specialize; I serviced literally anything that came across my bench. Of course, there were some units that I was unable to repair that another tech was. But the reverse was also true. In the last 10 years of my career, I was the tech they turned to when nobody else could or would service a unit. I will try to bear in mind that any advise I pass along in the future may be used by an inexperienced tech, and I will temper my responses accordingly. But at the places I have worked, WD-40 was commonplace; a qualified tech knows about the residue attracting contaminates over time, that's why you clean up afterwards. And I have to ask: Doesn't ANY lubricant have the same effect? |

I don't think anyone was deliberately impugning your technical skill, and no doubt most of the products that you applied WD40 to carried on working for some considerable time after you released them back into the wild. You, as I would, probably applied tiny amount in just the right place (tho you did advise flushing keyswitch contacts with it) - Probably for some jobs it`s fine, mechanical contacts, valve pins etc. but the fact is, It`s not the right product, and there`s plenty of stuff available that is specifically designed for the purpose. I`m sure most if not all manufacturers of equipment would be aghast at the thought of someone spraying WD40 into their gear, and the manufacturers of WD40 expressly advise against using it on electronics.
