Can you fix a broken button (microleaf)?
ivwshane:
I'll probably just use one of the mouse buttons.
Damn this sucks:(
I haven't heard back from GGG either yet.
RandyT:
I see that these were ordered in April of last year. Has it been in service since then or did you just install it and find the issue?
The first thing I would do is remove the mounting plate completely and test the switch again. If nothing has been spilled on it and it wasn't exposed to any other nasty elements, it probably just needs to have the mounting plate loosened up a bit
Regardless, I put one in the mail for you today just in case.

Thanks Randy (I also contacted GGG directly on the site).
It was the first time using it and I did check the wiring by using a different switch in the same spot with no luck.
No water or any other physical damage was done and if there was I sure wouldn't be expecting a replacement (I can't stand people who are like that).

I've used electrical contact cleaner to fix lots of different switches. You can get it from any auto parts store, ACE and I think even Walmart might have it.
Anyway, you just spray it in the "switch" and actuate it a bunch of times. It seems to clean the switch and restore it to working condition again.
Good Luck
