Picks Up Selector Is Messed Up On My Gutair?

Question

I have noticed recently that my pickup selector is kind of messed up. I have a Yamaha Pacifica basically a copy of a Strat and I can only play on the humbuckers when I switch to the middle and upper pickups, I get barely a sound from my amp. I never droped it so I dont know the why pickup selector is messed up. Does anyone know how to fix this? Dont me tell to go to a luther bc i wont lol.

Try spraying it with electrical contact cleaner, then work the switch back and forth several times. Wait 24 hours for it to dry, then plug it in. If that doesn't work, you might need to replace the switch.
