How to clean the buttons on a phone?

How to fix the buttons on my house phone ?

  • i don't really know what is wrong with the house phone in my room but the number buttons be acting real stupid shawty, when i press the "1" it makes two beeping sounds like i pressed two numbers then the dial tone cuts off.

  • Answer:

    sounds like the phone is done for.... but you could use a qtip and some rubbing alcohol to clean around the buttons, perhaps the button is just getting stuck.... but is sounds more likely that it is defective... I have a tester that decodes the DTMF tones being sent from a phone, so I can troubleshoot issues like this to determine if the proper digits are even being sent...
