KBT Pure - 5 switches gone dead.
« on: Sun, 11 September 2016, 21:37:11 »
Hi,

5 switches on my KBT Pure gone dead, and didn't register any key presses. They are

p [
; '
/


given that this is a standard qwerty layout.
As you can see they are keys next to each other so what could be the cause?
I speculate it is due to PCB gone bad, because I don't think this many switches could fail at the same time.
If it is so I think I'll sell this keyboard for parts.

open up your keyboard, check the backside of the PCB. Chances are high it's gone cold solder / lacking contract between the switch and the PCB.
