[attachimg=2]Hi, For some reason before I packed this board away for a while, before the 4 keys in my attachment were working.
Now As soon as I got out the board they've stopped working.
I modded this keyboard in the past with new switches and it was working fine, I then tried to resolder the switches in again checking the pins as well to no avail.
I tried a few things such as bridging the switches to other switches and noticed that the joint to the right i dont think is working.
Any suggestions as to what I can do? I brushed the area on the PCB with some alcohol as well in case and that still hasnt worked
Thanks

I tried this and it kind of worked, except I joined it to the tab button bc it diddnt do the trick for caps lock but now the tab button is permanently held down and in order to use the 3 other keys that stopped working I have to hold it down xD.
e.g Tab + Esc = Esc

are you sure you jump the correctly? the higher pins (relative to the bottom row) are connected to the diodes. the lower pins are tho ones should be connected to form a column.

oh wait... oops, well i'll try again tomorrow. thanks for your reply
