Default Sticky centre console buttons

I've got an annoying problem. Some of the buttons in the centre console sometimes get stuck either on or off. The problem seems to be mechanical and somehow related to the outside temperature. Has anyone else had this? Any cures for it?

Cheers,

As a quick fix try a plastic safe silicone spray such as Halfords | 3-IN-ONE Professional Silicon Spray Lubricant 400ml

If the silicone fails you could try electrical contact cleaner spray ?

Hope you get it sorted ,
