foxmulder900 Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 Any tips on repairing these keys? It's the only one on the board that doesn't register, so I just de-soldered it hoping to just be able to clean up some corrosion or something. However it doesn't seem to want to come apart any further and I don't want to force it for fear of breaking it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
archeocomp Posted July 12, 2020 Share Posted July 12, 2020 I measured resistance on non workin one and it was around 100-150Ohm. How much is yours? I then sprayed some contact cleaner in the litle holes. No change. Then I desoldered it. Suddenly it measured 0Ohm. Heat (and possibly cleaner) fixed it. I soldered it back, job done. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_The Doctor__ Posted July 12, 2020 Share Posted July 12, 2020 Cleaning plus heat works wonders. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foxmulder900 Posted July 13, 2020 Author Share Posted July 13, 2020 That worked! I just used some contact cleaner and was getting 0Ohm (not sure what it was before), re-soldered and all is well. Thanks a ton! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
