Hi guys I have a steel series 6gv2 its over 10 years old. Finally one key stopped working, I tried two new switches even used a switch from another key but no go… Not sure what I’m doing wrong the circuit path looks ok, I didn’t use any flux but there’s some in the solder core etc… Any suggestions please!
sorry for the late reply, I’ll have a look at the diode, I didn’t try flux yet either but seemed like there was enough in the solder I used… another guy suggested that due to age etc the issue is probably more central and its time for a new keyboard. I purchased a Keychron in the meantime, really happy with it
Yeah, in the last three weeks that “fix” I did failed again, but it was a steel plate and I had a spare RP2040 clone lying around around, so yadda yadda yadda, now I have a handwired, fully customizable 1800 keyboard with random red switches and zero LEDs of any kind (even capslock). My beloved Box Navies and 90+ slightly jacked-up hotswap sockets are now waiting for another project.
