How to clean BOSS switches

Well, got into the PH1 and easily cleaned the switch.
It’s a momentary/silver screw/clear switch version. Just popping the switch from the chassis, easily opening the switch up with a screwdriver and squirting Deoxit into the contacts was enough to get it working again.

The grommet had disintegrated into a ball of rubber, I had plenty of replacements, so the pedal is running again!

Very good!

Nice! Glad it worked.

The older style (clear/white) switch in the PH1 is even easier to fix vs the newer black switch. The older switch is made of softer plastic and slides apart really easily. Also, the spring is external and attached securely, so it’s not as tricky to reassemble.
