I have some buttons that are requiring a push with more pressure

Hi there,

 

My A and D buttons require a bit more pressure to turn on and off than B, C, and the FS1-FS4 buttons.  

Is this normal?  Can it be fixed?  If so, how?  I see there's a buttons option in safe mode, but I don't want to go tinkering with that before I know what I'm doing. visit link to  learn more click here

The buttons on the Pod Go are absolute garbage.  If the actuators actually work, the mechanism is very scratchy and just bad.  That's because the buttons operate inside these plastic rings without anything protecting the plastic.  The metal spring gets rusty, the actuators get gunked up.

 

So here's the first thing to do: clean the actuators.  I have a video how to do this here.

 

Then if your buttons start getting scratchy (happened to me after several months of inactivity), use some kind of a lube, like I use WD-40 with Lithium grease -- it really helps with stuck hinges, etc; apply a little bit on the button, and then press it a few times, wiping off all the residue--there will be lots of it.
