[Help needed] Broken row on Phantom

[scottc]

Hello everyone,

I'm having some issues with a Phantom build and wondering if you guys could help. My row 4 (1, 2, 3, ... Home, PgUp) isn't working. I know the most likely cause for this is missing connectivity between the pin on the Teensy and the PCB (which should be pin B1 if I'm reading the TMK source right), but I've tried that to no avail. Does anyone know what else might've caused it? I remember shorting each key position manually before soldering the switches in and things definitely worked then.

SUCCESS! It was a stupid mistake. The Phantom PCB and TMK firmware use opposite ordering for the rows. This means that I was looking at row B1 instead of B4. I figured this out by soldering B1 directly to the 4:0 switch - which made that row output the keys from the second row. Turns out I was a bit overzealous with my snipping on the B4 switch and was just looking in the wrong place when trying to fix it before. And all it took for me to get it working was to ask for help!

I've lost count of the times that has happened to me.

Glad it's working, get some pics up now .

Just working it into my white HPE87 case now! It's not the prettiest, but it'll do while I wait to visit the USA to pick up my aluminium replacement.

Alright Hzza, I've promised before but here it is!



Currently wearing Gateron blanks (plus two random ISO Cherry PBTs) since the Gateron clear tops won't let me use original Cherries. Hopefully I'll have time to fix that tonight.

Whey! Nice one dude.

What?

Yeah, Cherry caps catch on Gateron switch tops.
