Title: Nerd 60 keys chattering.
Post by: ideus on Fri, 24 February 2017, 21:01:57

The left shift, Z, C,B ,M ,< and ? keys stop working in my Nerd 60 keyboard, for no reason, apparently. Any ideas for troubleshooting the failure root cause?

Some of the keys registered intermittently some others are totally dead, particularly the shift key.

Edit: I found also that the Esc and Del keys do not work, either.

Solved: Changing the Esc's switch stem fixed the problem. It is known that the Esc key in GON keyboards is very important. I am not sure what was the issue, but changing the Cherry Green stem for a Zealio Purple one fixed the problem entirely. The board works perfectly now.

I just posted this in case someone runs with a similar problem.
