Re: IBM SSK club!

Re: Cable replacement on Model M Industrial M-13

I never had to do any of that when replacing my cable, i showed them a picture of the connector i needed and they had it in their warehouse, always worth asking if they have it first Directly from unicomp ticket support system Reply by T.

Re: Cable replacement on Model M Industrial M-13

Thanks for the advice. I emailed Unicomp to confirm they have the right cable available but they haven't responded, so I might need to give them a call. For replacing the internal connector, how did you splice the original one onto the cable? (I am not sure what method I would use to connect the wi...

Re: Cable replacement on Model M Industrial M-13

Yes, follow w's advice. I myself replaced my black m13 frayed cable with the corresponding curly unicomp's one, flawlessly. Only side note is that you'll have to replace the cable plug from AMP to the original internal one but it's very easy since internal cable colouring scheme is the same, so the ...

Re: 5251 Beamspring key not activating

Thank you! That makes sense and is very helpful. Would I need to just remove the keycap of the O key when I remove the switch to adjust the spring, or will I need to remove all of them?

Re: 5251 Beamspring key not activating

Assuming that I am by no means a beam spring key expert, the issue you described reminded me a similar problem I experienced on a key module present on my 3278. It seems related to a misalignment of the module key metal slats, as well described by Ellipse in this video clip , which with the service ...
