Title: Switches Pressing Simultaneously After Desoldering
Post by: Cosmonaut911 on Wed, 22 March 2023, 01:47:53

Hello

I need help or insight into what went wrong or generally what is wrong with this board.

Okay, I recently removed Kailh blue switches and soldered Gateron KS 3 Red switches into my old keyboard. at the beginning, I plug my keyboard to my pc and everything looks normal for the first 5 minutes until the capslock row down to numpad 6 pressing continuously. I decided to remove the switches from the Capslock row and it still pressing! I need help or solution to this problem.

Thanks!

Btw, this is my first soldering new switches into keyboard.

Not sure if this is the cause, but you seem to be missing a diode.
