Title: Topre key repeat stuck
Post by: billm on Thu, 18 September 2014, 18:36:19

Hey Guys-

I've been having a few problems with my Topre realforce lately where various keys (it's rarely the same key) seem to get stuck on repeat. Admittedly I haven't cleaned the thing in years so that could be the problem, but it seems odd that it's happening on random keys. Has anyone else had a problem like this? Do you think cleaning will help? Seems like it may be a logic board issue to me.

Any opinions are welcome.

Thanks

there could be moisture bulid-up inside, so that the domes are sticking to the contact board?

guessing...
