Title: My dampened key sticks D: [RESOLVED]
Post by: NikoGasm on Tue, 16 October 2012, 18:03:00

So I just put some o-rings on my Key Cool 87 and the backspace doesn't seem to want to come back up anymore. Anyone have a solution to the problem? It's not the switch itself, I tested that.


Edit: Nevermind, messed around with it for a bit and I figured it out.

Are you sure that the ring is seated properly, all the way down?

Next, is it installed properly on the stem?

You could always just leave the ring off that one key ......

So, what was the problem?

The two things that go into the key that the stabilizer bar goes into weren't facing the proper direction. I just flipped them around and it worked perfectly.
