Sticky/gunked X70 Window Switch Fix

$

0

A main issue with X70 window switches is their tendency to become sticky and/or gunked up over time.  In the past I have tried multiple cleaners to repair this problem, however, most would completely strip the rubberized coating or remove the grey coating on the switches.  Oreo931 suggested that I try the method listed below as a last resort and the results were awesome.  The sticky residue was removed, revealing a new layer of rubberized coating.  A quick, easy, cheap and effective fix.  I wanted to share this with others as many end up purchasing new window switches instead.  Hope this helps!

 

Tools:  1 cup of water or spray bottle, toothbrush, and a microfiber towel.

 

Procedure:  Soak toothbrush in water.  Scrub switch for 5-10 seconds.  Wipe switch with microfiber towel.  Repeat 2-3 times until switch is clean.  Wipe up any water left behind.  Done!
