/* Enclosed Micro-Switch Joysticks */
Inside there's a slightly more complicated micro-switch, with a two armed actuator. Be careful, because all these small parts can easily fall out and aren't that easy to get back in (assuming you've found them again on that paterned patterned carpet where they landed). The only important bit is the two contacts on the right hand side. Clean these with contact cleaner and re-assemble the switch.
To remove the fire button switches there are two tabs, one at each end on opposite sides of the red casing seen above, you'll need to carefully push a small screwdriver between the red outer casing and the micro-switch to lift the tab, so that the switch can then be pulled out. The fire button micro-switches are identical to the others and should be cleaned as described above.
The Competition Pro is the only joystick where the designers even slightly considered cable management of any sort. On the outer side of each directon direction micro-switch, there is a small channel where the wires can be placed to keep them away from the screws, make use of these to avoid wire damage.
