I'm looking for an Apple M0118 (iso), language does not matter, either complete or in parts. Any help finding one would be greatly appreciated. (i'm located in US)

Wait, you have a keyboard with those switches in? Yeah. It's on facit typewriter similar to the one Haata posted way back https://deskthority.net/photos-videos-f64/facit-8111-2-typewriter-t12424.html . Which also had unusual mount and same caps. Gorgeous caps by the way ;) Maybe that's the reason f...

you could try buying a used one or one that doesn't even work anymore for parts (ebay, etc..) you could try contacting kensington but i doubt they sell individual parts like that.

Used a Razer Krait for years & years till the switches started to fail. Currently using CM Storm Recon. It's a little taller than i usually get, but i really like it. Optical, programmable, enough easily reachable buttons. I Really liked the adjustability & programability of the RAT7 but the laser s...

Not positive what the base of Shoe Goo is, but i am very familiar with it. It will definitely be harder/stiffer than silicone caulk/sealant. Shoe Goo probably will not silence near as much as the silicone. Picture it somewhere between silicone & epoxy putty. Shoe Goo will adhere to just about anythi...

apologies for reviving a dead thread.... obviously by the look it's IIc/IIgs era (1984-1986) but pre-dates the ADB keyboard (going by the cable & bezel). there was also the "Cassie Prototype Keyboard". very similar, minus the bezel. http://www.applefritter.com/?q=node/294 http://www.applefritter.com...

truly wish you the best

ended up replacing PCB with a GH60 board i picked up from techkeys. problem solved, and now fully programmable. yay!

swapped the switch & still not being recognized. shorting pins/pads on pcb gets no response either. guessing it has to be something in the firmware at this point. being a non-programmable board, i don't know if there's a way to fix it, if that's where the problem lies.

any suggestions?

yeah, i can try that.
thanks

Did a quick test, switch is reading the same as others (aprox .2ohm when pressed, all tests done while keyboard is unplugged) Guess i'll have to wait until my parts come & try some cleaning/swapping... Diode looks in good shape and is acting as the others when tested with meter. Correct me if i'm wr...

Oooh, i didn't even think about that... good point. Even if it is making a connection, if the reading is way off it could be throwing off the reading/scan.

Ordered some parts last evening for a numberpad i want to do a switch swap on so i'll have some extra parts if needed.

Thanks again.

If none of the other keys in the row/column are having issues, I doubt it's a trace issue. - no, it's only that key Are the solder joints solid? - yes, all look good It's pointing to a controller issue right now. Can you check to see if it's outputting a code that isn't assigned to anything? If not...

looking for a little help. i have a kbt pure (original, not pro) and today the right shift stopped being recognized. now, i've pulled the pcb out of the case and the switch is completing the circuit (continuity test with meter) but is not being recognized on the computer. at first i thought it was n...

I remmeber looking at the notion ink adam when they were first coming out, had an interesting set of options & screen choices for the time/device. Believe you could get pixel qi displays (pixel chi).
