it either needs a shot of compressed air to clean it or the fader is simply worn out
my friend's djm 600 had the same thing with the booth monitor knob |

I had the exact same problem at one club that I used to play off. The slightest touch to the booth monitor know and POP! Basically there ended up being two settings for the monitors - on and off. |

WD40? |
Hell no :whip:
Never, ever, get wd40 near a fader or pot.
Isopropyl alcohol aka switch cleaner aka fader fluid should do it, unless the contact surface is shot, then it needs a whole new fader.
not too expensive if so and only basic knowledge of soldering required.
A friend had one of the very first DJM500 mixers in the UK and within 3 months the headphone pot started to crackle. |

Cheers. Wasn't sure on using wd40, I've never tried or recommended using it for this purpose and was just wondering if it was ok or not. |

| isopropyl alcohol is the best solution for cleaning electronics, i always have a bottle handy for the times i need to clean my cdjs or something |
