I love these controllers. So easy to clean - just remove the screws and remove the PCB. The rest can be cleaned with dish detergent. Now they look like new. Easy!

Do you clean all the contacts? (I use a pencil eraser) You can tell when they need to be cleaned (you press the jump button -Mario- and there's a lag) yours are very dirty, you can tell by how shiny the rubber is.
