How to clean an Import 5-way.

[Gex]

I got some contact cleaner from radio shack to fix my messed up switches on my RG550.

They're the plastic import type, 5-way.


Only problem is. . .i dont know how to get into this thing.

Where should I spray to get the cleaner in the switch to scrape out the gunk so my switch will work properly again?

Thanks!

Place the small extensoin tube directly into the slot on the top of the body or pickguard. A 1 second spray is all that's necessary for a small switch. Move the switch lever back and forth a few times. Plug in and test. Repeat if necessary.

Ok, cool, I'll give it a try.
