Gladiator MK2 Thumb Button Stuck

[detroitechno]

The "canon" thumb button on top of my Gladiator MK2 stick is stuck in.

It was sticking a bit for the past few days but it always popped back up.

Now it's stuck in.

The stick is out of warranty and there is no local service for it.

Does anyone know of a fix for this?

Thanks for any help.

Most likely, nothing terrible happened.
The button itself has shifted slightly relative to the plastic hat. It is necessary to disassemble the handle and push the button along the guides, fix it with tape.

Thanks for the help.

I took it apart and the thumb button simply worked it's way back into place.

Screwed it together and it works.

Thanks again!

... and it's broken again.

ok, I've tried to tape the side of it.

It's broken again after 1 day.

Could you please tell me what you mean by "fix it with tape"?

I would really appreciate the help...

Thank you.

Where did you bought it? You can open a ticket.

Take a piece of scotch tape and glue it to the button so that it does not slide out along the guides.
