Replaced keycaps, spacebar mushy?

[brentaarnold]

I recently purchased a Cherry G80-3000 and a set of GMK Dolch keycaps. The stabilized keys when struck off-center can be quite mushy, the longer the key the musher on one end, usually the left side. Unfortunately, when I was pulling the original keycaps, the spacebar's left Cherry stabilizer pulled out of the socket, which I placed back in and seems to be right (it's identical to the right stabilizer) but if you strike the spacebar on the left edge it will not actuate. It mushes all the way down and won't actuate until I start sliding my finger towards the switch.

Any ideas?

99% of the time this is happening it's because the wire isn't fully seated in its notch on the stab clip.

This also occurs if you place the wire in the wrong position.

Like Ivan said, it sounds like the wire isn't properly on the stab area where it's supposed to clip in. Make sure it snaps into place. Take a pic of the stab wire so we can see how it's seated.
