I have a spare keyboard I'd like to get going. There are maybe 10
dead keys, and a few really sticky ones. what causes them to stick?

Hi,
open the keyboard and check the board, whether you can see any
corroded parts.
Then check with a Ohm-Meter, whether there is contact if you push
the space bar.
If not, try to clean the button (often full of dust) with air
pressure.
If yes, try to check the multiplex connection from the two pins of
the button to other buttons and to the arry with a lot of pins in
one row on top of the reverse side of the board. You can easily
trace the connections visually, this is a one layer board.
If there are interrupted connections, just resolder them (the
button itself, the perhaps interrupted connections) or just solder
a new wire, where corrosion took place and destroyed the connections
No need to throw away and replace the original part of your Lisa !

castles of Koenig Ludwig e.g. Neuschwanstein and last but not least
the original Oktoberfest !

suggestions?
Anyone have a working keyboard for sale?
