Take your t68 apart and have a look. It certainly looks very difficult to replace. Some delicate soldering would be required.

Hah, the words 'delicate' and 'soldering' don't go together with me

It's a solder job I'm afraid! You could try cleaning around underneath the plastic joystick bit with a toothbrush, just in case it's actually some dirt, but I suspect it would be a case of removing the joystick from the PCB and soldering a new one on.

Its a pretty well sealed component so i doubt its cleanable. Mine is goosed too, its just wear and tear.
