This model is the one with the pins.
On the old keyboard the 'O' & 'K' keys are faulty. Only working when
you press down on to the motherboard. On the new keyboard that came
from the states, the '1,Q,A,Z' and 'Delete' keys don't work. I've tried
pressing the connector down in to the socket and then pressing
different spots just to see if it's a connection short but unlike the
old keyboard i've been totally unable to get this new one i got off
ebay to work.

if the connector is like the flat ribbon type, then an eraser on the
contacts has solved a pc notebook keyboard prob like that...

Hi there everyone
My friend has a G3 300 Blue ibook and she's having trouble with
keyboards. Her old one will only work if you place a bit of cardboard
over the keyboard connecter and squash it down with the metal plate
then then the keyboard on top. She doesn't really like this solution
so we bought a new keyboard from America for her. I plugged the thing
in and several of the keys dont work, they are not the same keys as on
her old one.
I might point out that unlike her old keyboard, i have been unable to
get the dead keys to work. I've pressed on the connector and even
straightened some of the pins out.
Has anyone else had this kind of problem?
Cheers
James
