I used contact cleaner/lube. If a track is worn into the contacts (most likely), you can bend the arm a little to one side so that the tip wipes along a path a little to the side of the original path. Just make sure that the flat of the arm stays parallel to the surface of the contact board so that only the ball of the tip makes contact. Sorry I don't have pictures, but it will probably make sense once you have the thing apart. Oh, did I forget to mention that you will need to take the TPS apart?
