How to fix the Keyboard ?
« on: August 26, 2004, 01:01:41 AM »
Hello,
I'm new to all of this, my name is Ant how is everyone doing?
This is my first post here.

My Gran has recently acquired an Amiga I think its an Amiga 500, it came with loads of books and software but the bottom row of keys on the keyboard doesn't work. I know quite a bit about Software but not Hardware.

Could someone please explain firstly if it is possible to fix this problem? and if it is do you have time to tell me how to do it? or could you point me in the direction of some literature explaining how to do it?

Thanks to all that respond, Gran says thanks too!

Thanks for all your help so far,
I'm hoping its just because a couple of pins have worked loose  on the connection, but I guess thats fairly unlikely. There are no stains or any discoloration on any of the keys or under the keys when I popped them off so the spilt drink idea might be out as well...

You've been really helpful, I might go see Gran tonight. Is there anything in particular I need to know before opening the Amiga up? are there any pictures of what a healthy amiga looks like on the inside and what an unhealthy one looks like

Thanks to all that replied !!
