Title: Quick Help Needed
Post by: syke on Tue, 08 January 2019, 09:00:00
My keyboard came per-installed with the QMX clip sound dampening brackets. My backspace key was constantly getting stuck, upon removing my keycap, I saw that the QMX clip was partially detached and was refusing to be securely attached to the plate despite me trying to physically push it in. The QMX clip was popping up with each key press and it was causing the switch to be stuck.

I tried removing the QMX clip, but was unable to without breaking something.

Anyone knows how are these installed or removed? Do I have to de-solder the switch in order to have them re-installed it securely?

I got this on video.. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gnHv0xa6bcw](
