Description: I've used liquid silver to repair this connector. Its a bit messy but works usually. Wish someone would scan the keyboard traces, so that you can tell which one is broken if, for eg., row with 'S' is not working. Don't forget to pull up the clip, it would prevent this kind of problem.

Then using a paper cutter i scratched the green emulsion carefully until the inner black lines come up. Notice that the true color of the inner lines is white ! At least this is what i saw after scratching the green emulsion. After that i replaced the ribbon back in the clip and the keyboard was working fine. Actually it still does. |
