alcohol; so some of the traces were "cut" and will never again make
contact with the controller board. So this keyboard is toast;
Could you use some of the silver(?) conductive paint to re-draw the traces?
Ohhh, I did not know about this. Found a "pen" of conductive paint,
ironically from MG Chemicals (the 100% Alcohol is from them.) Darn, I
have already removed a bunch of parts from the keyboard; guess I'll have
to put it all back together now.
Excellent suggestion, thanks! I will try this in maybe 2 weeks? Will
come back and let you know if it works.
Best Regards,
