Yes it does..

Probably 3

Contact Saitek. They sent out 12 pots to me free of charge for my old X36 stick. Had them within 2 days. I still have 10 of them since 12 was a bit excessive. :)

It should have 4 total   .  you may be able to clean them with contact cleaner also ... id suggest pulling them out so you can move them thru there full travel as you clean them .

I used compressed air (the canned variety) with decent results. Dunno about alcohol or other solvents. I'd probably avoid them.
