The Air Button can simply be worn out in which case it obviously needs to be changed. Measure the size of hole once it is removed and then you will know what size you need to reinstall.
The inside of the Air Button may have some calcium built up inside where the button goes up/down. If you can get the center button up and removed then you can take some soft emery cloth and gently run around the outside edge of the button and the inside of the air button body. This will gently remove any calcium deposited there and allow the button to go up and down easily.
There is a nut on the underside of the air button (under the tub) that hold each air button in place. You have to get to the underside of the air button to unthread the nut so the air button can be replaced.There is a nut on the underside of the air button (under the tub) that hold each air button in place.
