How To Clean the Sidekick LX Trackball

Sidekick LX Trackball cleaning guideIs the trackball on your Sidekick LX not working?  Are you having a hard time rolling the trackball down?  Does the trackball not roll left or right? Problems with the Sidekick Lx (2007) trackball moving up?
If you are having issues with your Sidekick scrolling then this cleaning guide is for you.

Issues with the trackball on the Sidekick LX usually stem from a build of dirt and grime in the rollers.  This causes the sensors to get blocked and the trackball seems to stop working properly.

Thankfully, the trackball on the LX is really easy to clean.  The following solution will fix about 75 percent of your trackball issues.  It may take repeated cleanings but it will usually do the trick.

The sidekick trackball cleaning process requires Qtips and some IPA alcohol.

1.Turn off your sidekick

2. Moisten the end of the q-tip, and gently clean the trackball while rotating.

3. Clean again with another alcohol dipped  swab.

4. Use the dry tip of the q-tip to dry off.

5. Let dry for a minute and try it out.  If this doesn’t work then try again.

Below is a video that shows the trackball cleaning process on a Sidekick LX.
