Yes, that would help, but you would buy many parts, you actually don't need. Well, your question is already older, but I just went through the cleaning process myself and I thought I might post my opinion as a short supplement. The job took a few hours but now my keyboard is like brand new! The key contacts are sealed in between 2 glued silicon layers. The sweet substance had made many keys sticky so I took the whole keyboard apart and washed it in warm water. This forms a little pocket where liquids will coleect and dry, thereby altering the light reflected /refracted. You must pay particular attention to the 4 slots on the perspex layer. I simply immersed them in warm water for an hour or so and then gently dried them with a cold airflow from a hair dryer The reason my keyboard was only illuminated in the centre is not because the circuitry or faulty LEDs but simly because the liguid had altered the refraction/reflection qualities of the clean perspex layer. Brillianyt idea!ģ) a thin plastic transparent layer with a black grid whose purpose it is to absorb the light that would otherwise be reflected in between the key spaces. the density of the white dots vary to ensure equal illumination of all the keys. This sheet has several white dots that serve the purpose of reflecting the light that comes from the diodes at 90 degrees up to the key. These are sealed so they cannot be damaged by a simple spillĢ ) Transparent Perspex layer: The 4 Leds on the white layer fit into 4 slots on this perspex sheet.
I pulled the keyboard of and fully apart (tricky job and very time consuming)Īs it turns out (as Thomas pointed out) the backlight system is spectacular! there are 3 layers on the bottom of the keyboard just for the backlight system.ġ ) White plastic layer. I thought the lights were behind the keys and that the circuitry was damaged by the liquid.
Someone dropped some sugary substance on the keyboard before I got it. Update on "backlight only glows in centre"
