Xbox Elite Controller 2 Right Trigger Squeaking when the hair trigger is set to lowest setting.

I am having squeaking issues with my new Elite controller 2. The right trigger, which is used the most, squeaks when pushing it when it is set on the lowest setting. If I put it on the middle or if it is on the highest where It needs pushed all the way
in there is no squeaking. This did not do this up till 2 days ago when it was minor but now it is major issue.

I am under the 14 day return window, I am wondering if I should just return it to the store. For $180 not good having an issue just 11 days in.

I'm assuming that there is something in the locking mechanism itself, like a small hair, or a bit of dirt or dust, you may have to play around with the trigger and locks to get it out, assuming that's what it is of course.

Had this happen a lot with my Series 1. Silly solution but hear me out! Put your lips close to the gap in the trigger when you hold it down and blow into it. What has happened is dust or dirt has gotten in there and it makes the squeak when you click your
trigger, quick little blow and you are good to go!

check that it doesn't get stuck, that could be the cause of the problems, but I suggest you use the guarantee to have it exchanged for a new one

Tried that. No luck. I am going to try and get a can of air and do it to see what happens. It only happens when it is the lowest hair trigger,

Thank you. As I said I did get a replacement. But it doesn't help when the replacement has the same issue.
