Re: keyboard not working after opening for cleaning

Dismantle it again. Reassemble it correctly. You will most likely have some internal component out of place, and it is stopping the keyboard from functioning.

It is not a good idea to disassemble keyboards for cleaning!

Re: keyboard not working after opening for cleaning

What did you use to clean the keyboards? Air or some kind of liquid?

Are these desktop or laptop keyboards.
