I know the shiny buttons already had to be replaced by PO because I saw it listed as warranty replacement on one of the receipts.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

7 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

WTF, I just cleaned the inside of my 996 for the first time. I was cleaning the dash with some of my trusty windex, and the radio ***** (Becker 220) went demonic on me..... They were fine before cleaning, but now they are gummy and sticky? Do I have to go to the dealer for new rubberized covers? I know the shiny buttons already had to be replaced by PO because I saw it listed as warranty replacement on one of the receipts. Has anyone had any experiences like this? Can I just use Gumout or some other cleaner until it is not sticky anymore? It was like there was a coating put on the *****? YUCK!

POST 2Original post

Give the good folks at SW Stereo a call at 1-800-270-BEST www.swstereo.com , I purchased new ***** from them. Once the old ones go gummy they are throw aways.

POST 3Original post

Windex can do that. It's best to just use a damp cloth.

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post
