				TLDR:
 the keyboard is hyperx alloy elite rgb
 column [f4][4][r][f][c][space] stopped working
 right pin [r] -> left pin [workingswitches]
 prints out the key on the same column as [workingswitches] but on the row of [r]
 left pin [r] -> right pin [workingswitches]
 nothing happens
 left pin[r] -> left pin [workingswitches]
 prints out the key on the same column as [workingswitches] but on the row of [r] when i press [r]
 right pin[r] -> right pin [workingswitches]
 nothing happens
 left and right pin [r] -> left pin[workingswitches]
 prints out the key on the same column as [workingswitches] but on the row of [r]
 left and right pin [r] -> left pin[workingswitches]
 prints [f6] if [workingswitches] on same row as [f6]
 prints [6] if [workingswitches] on same row as [6]
 nothing happens if [workingswitches] is on same row as [r]
 prints [h] if [workingswitches] on same row as [h]
 prints [b] if [workingswitches] on same row as [b]
 
heres the whole story:
 column [f4][4][r][f][c][space] stopped working
 googled some stuff and it says maybe i should try cleaning it, i open the keyboard, the backcover too, i dont see anything dirty on the pcb so i clean the keycaps and put the keyboard back together, i plug it in and it shows up as storage device, (crp disabled),open the keyboard again, dont see anything wrong, didnt miss any wire, i try and google to fix that,some software solutions come up , nothing works so i just put the keyboard to the side for a few hours,take a nap, plug it back in, and it works, including the column which was not working for some minutes then the column stops working again, so i go back to google and it says maybe trace is broken, so i try and use wires to jump switches to try and make them work, need more help on how/what to do, cant print out any key from the not working column using the wires

 Hope someone else replies because I've been having a similar issue. I soldered MillMax sockets onto a BT65 PCB and the last column of keys doesn't work. I read somewhere that it could be because of a solder bridge so maybe that's the issue here.
