Switch Pro Controller, one of the sticks getting a little 'gritty'

[atxcyclist]

The right stick on my controller has started to have a little more resistance than normal and feels a bit like there's some grittiness to its movement. I was wondering if this is something anyone has tackled here, I see some iFixit guides for repairing and just blowing the controller out with air, but is there a lubricant for analog controller mechanisms or is air likely enough?

Sorry you got no responses. If you still need help i gotcha. 

 

Take the thumbstick off and blow it out. Once all dust or debris is out then lubricate it with WD-40.
