if the connector is like the flat ribbon type, then an eraser on the
contacts has solved a pc notebook keyboard prob like that...

Hi there everyone
My friend has a G3 300 Blue ibook and she's having trouble with
keyboards. Her old one will only work if you place a bit of
cardboard over the keyboard connecter and squash it down with the
metal plate then then the keyboard on top. She doesn't really like
this solution so we bought a new keyboard from America for her. I
plugged the thing in and several of the keys dont work, they are
not the same keys as on her old one.
I might point out that unlike her old keyboard, i have been unable
to get the dead keys to work. I've pressed on the connector and
even straightened some of the pins out.
Has anyone else had this kind of problem?
Cheers
James
