Re: Can I replace individual keys on PB3400 keyboard?

[Gary F . Daught]

After a few tries I was able to get the keyboard fully functioning. It 
appears the problem was in properly seating the ribbon cable into the 
motherboard connectors. Pretty fussy!

I'd still be interested to know whether I can replace individual keys 
on a PB 190/5300/3400 keyboard. Thanks.
