PC-Key install help

[Skippy]

they say I have to take the white plastic around the slot for it to

The white plastic is the crimping sheath that holds the keyboard membrane into place. With care simply try to remove it without damaging incase you wish to reuse again in the future.


Be sure to fit the interface into the slot the correct way too.

Skiptro.

I tried lifting the plastic from the bottom with a thin bladed knife but only managed to chip a bit of plastic off and it didn't move, I did a search and found a pic of a PC-key in a 1200 but  it still had the white plastic still on but Elbox say it should be removed.

If you don't remove that plastic sheath you'll not have adequate room to successfully insert the interface.

I've taken a photo of my a600 motherboard which utilises the same connector as the a1200.

Images are JPEG 640*480

Hope this helps.
