My brother in law's QFR is acting up. It's out of warranty and the following keys don't work:

Note: The Menu/FN key works but just doesn't show up in Aqua's Key Test.
F3 F7
BACKSPACE
TAB T Y [{ ]}
CAPS LOCK
SHIFT (left)
WIN (left)
Things that I have tried but didn't work:
- swapping the controller out with the controller from a QFR known to work
- swapped out the switches that aren't working
- inspected the PCB and everything seems to be OK
Anything else I can do?
Edit: Added that it is out of warranty.
Um...... hmmm.. if the board looks fine.. and it's not multiple fractures.. then it's probably on the controller end..
Unfortunately the cost in "time" to fix this problem far exceed the cost of replacing the keyboard..
pull the daughter board off, check for damage..
You COULD get the qfr replacement controller board and try that.. at worst it's not the controller, and you can stick it in the NEW replacement QFR which you would've had to buy anyway... there was a GB around here some where.
