My old xbox 360 steering wheel/ pedals are not working correctly

Maybe some of you technicians might know the problem- anyways it's the Microsoft wireless steering wheel which was discontinued by them a few years ago. The wheel works fine, but while I'm driving the break always stays slightly on, like it's stuck. For example, while playing forza all I do is slide through first gear, shift to second, go extremely slow, blah blah and sometimes the break is fully engaged without me even touching it.
I took it a part, there is no loose wires, no dust or anything. Do you think if I get electrical cleaner and spray on it it will work?

It's telling you to get a one.

most likely the physical switch is either stuck or you have a short in the switch or wiring. I think the brake is an 'on/off' momentary switch. Does it adjust for pedal force? Like the harder you press the harder it is on the game? If so it uses more or a rheostat than a switch. Something that changes the level of voltage or frequency of the signal based on input. in either case the switch/rheostat/button is the problem. First thing would be to ensure contacts are clean and that the switch moves freely. If you have access to a multimeter, check for continuity when the switch is opened and close.
