Hi,
I just bought an Acer 6312 on ebay. It has white acer-labeled sliders. The stem looks like alps so I guess these are re-branded alps sliders. I have to confirm that and plan to take pics. These are clicky btw.
I actually have another 6312 that I found on the street, someone hat thrown it out. Together with an Apple Design keyboard which I left behind, haha.
The one I found is in bad shape so I bought another one in better condition. That was the idea at least.
Turns out some of the keys of the new board are sticky as if the board has been drowned in orange juice. The sticky keys move back up but very, very slowly.
How can I clean these? I read a suggestion somewhere to put the whole board into the dish washer, just avoid the dry cycle. Would that work with alps switches? How about the electronics?
Or can the switches be opened without de-soldering them?
Thanks.
