Hello ! I have got a iBook keyboard witch some keys in the same vertical line (8,I,K) don’t work. Is it possible to dismantle such a keyboard in order to repair it ? Thank you for your answer.
Unresponsive Keys in the same line or another pattern point to a defective inner mat / active layer. Don’t know the right term for it. This is the rubber (sandwiched) mat with the microswitches and connector / cable. Unfortunately i never found a way to salvage those, neither by disassemling (impossible) or cleaning. Usually this points to a liquid damage. I don’t think you have another chance than purchasing another keyboard. They shoudn’t be too expensive, though.
Unfortunately I can’t give the serial number of the machine, because I took it from a second hand iBook that I don’t have anymore and I am not sure it was the original keyboard. It’s a pity I can’t save it according to remacberlin and lemerise because its aspect is the one of a brand new. I am going to keep it for the keys. A lot of thanks to all of you.
