I used the same exact grease for my 2000 nxs2 with perfect results, but searching online, some people said that lithium grease can decrease rubber lifespan (i mean greasing the little white bearings with the black rubber) what about this thing ?
Thanks for the reply my friend. Scared of the lifespan of rubber parts (like White rollers) i opted for using White lithium for every Gear and plastic to plastic parts but switching to silicone grease for White rollers (safer and highly suggested for rubber parts), and I obtained the exact same result without no paranoid about rubber lifespan. I'm really happy for this silicone/lithium combo, now my 2000nxs2 are probably better than new, you make my day! Hope the silicone grease can help someone else!
From experience, the grease makes a big difference in the long run. I've repaired over 100 controllers and after a while, I started using grease so the repair lasts longer and is noise free.
@@djviinie You're welcome. Sorry to hear. I really hate doing liquid repairs since they are so time-consuming. Liquid damage is the worst, but the sooner the cleaning process starts the better. I usually take everything apart and begin inspecting the board under the microscope, especially the areas that got touched by liquid. Use 99% isopropyl alcohol and a brush for the cleaning. Let me know if you need further assistance. Good luck!
@@djab203 thank u. Yess everything is completely disassembled. So by the visible spill spots I need to look at least with magnifier then?. Somebody said demineralized water is also an option to clean is that treu ? I already started with isopropyl
@@djviinie Magnifier is the best because most components are so tiny and it's best to do a good cleaning so the problem doesn't return or get worse if not cleaned properly. Your other cleaning solution is Deionized Water and Ultrasonic Cleaner but unless you're a business and do this for a living it is not cost-effective to spend money on it. 99% isopropyl is the most affordable cleaning solution which does an amazing job and evaporates after so doesn't stay on the board. Other cleaning chemicals that don't evaporate sit around and create a short when the unit is powered on.
Pioneer makes good controllers but the problem is they use too much plastic components, instead of using steel to make the controllers durable. I had similar issues with my ddj 800; deck A jog wheel snapped out of position and I couldn’t spin or scratch on it.

Good Point. So far I haven't noticed any issues with this grease and rubber.

@@alessiopisanu2074 I appreciate the feedback and I will follow your approach as well. Thank you.
My 880 right loose jog wheel came loose yesterday? Same fix??? Thanks, brad.
Yes. They are all similar
Why so much grease. I just repairing a flx-10 but near to none grease in it.

@@djab203 nice to know thank u.
Any tips for me for cleaning a flx-10 with drink spilled over it. (Was working untill power was off so no shortage)

It seems all companies do that these days so they can keep selling more and more controllers.
