The start button on my Janome Star long arm machine works sometimes and sometimes it doesn't. I suppose it will need to be repaired. Where do I get the parts and is this an easy thing to repair?

My best friend has these machines and she said to first try carefully cleaning around the button with a very fine brush as it could just be a lint build up that is causing the button to be wonky.
This is an example of what is out there on YouTube if you are handy and want to try a DIY fix. I wouldn't, but that is me...I am all thumbs:

Post back what you learn!! Hope it is as simple as a good cleaning!
While researching another problem, I read an article on Janome forum that you could use the spray that is used to clean computers but I have not tried this so I'm only relating what a "repair" shop person suggested.
It was suggested to turn off the machine and just spray the area/opening with a short burst and wait a few minutes before using the machine.
This spray can be found at most large stores or online.
