Hi All,
I have a Ms. Pacman Joystick that's perfectly fine, but a minor annoyance is when you move the joystick, it sounds like a flock of seagulls coming in for a landing, aka when you move the joystick it squeaks a lot. Any recommendations on trying to quiet it down? The leafs are functional so I don't see a reason to replace them.
 
Take it apart and clean it and replace the centering grommet.

Good call. Cleaned it. Didn't make much of a difference. Discovered it was the little plastic bumper tabs that were scraping against the leaves. Put some electrical tape over where the plastic rubbed..and now..silence is golden.
