Get a sharp bent-tip a dental pick and watch this.

It's not too obvious what the point was from the video I guess but the T key was almost dead, and so I swapped the rubber dome with the one from the right-shift key because I can live with the right-shift being dead if I have to.

In the end, it not only fixed the T key, the right-shift still works fine. Both keys now work fine. Go figure.

Hi all, I've got a couple of dead keys on a Model 102. I understand they're the rubber dome type of keys. I'm thinking I can pop the keys, check and clean the contacts.

But.

They seem to be quite firmly affixed (haven't pulled too hard yet) so was wondering if there's something 'different' going on there regarding the way the keys are mounted and the best way to remove them.

It doesn't look like an ALPS board that the others use...
