Squeeky Controller
One of my xbox trigger buttons is squeeking when i press it. Would squirting WD40 all around the trigger button be any use or is there another solution to fixing the problem? The squeeking noise happens mostly on driving games when you use the trigger button to control the acceleration of your car.

Re: Squeeky Controller
Tryed using soap but it still squeeks. I think its because the soap cant get the the hinge or spring or whatever is squeeking inside the controller. Any advice please?

If you use WD40 squirt a bit onto a cotton bud and apply it with that. stops you getting too much on, as otherwise it does get everywhere.

yea, tryed a cotton bud with the liquid soap putting it around the trigger and then squeezing it a few times. It seems like its not getting to the problem area. If i go out and buy some WD40 you think that would work better?

Not sure mate, i've used it in the past on a squeaky strum bar on one of my Guitar Hero controllers, but it doesn't last very long.

Re: Squeeky Controller
you will need to open the pad and put some grease on the spring

The pad seems to need a special screwdriver to open it. I just went out and bought some WD40 it seems to have done the trick. Thanks to everyone with their suggestions.
