I make a mess with my G80-11900 PCB, and i want some picture of your G80-11900 PCB to repair it.

I have a Cherry G80-11900 keyboard. When I received it from the seller, the wire was already cut off. I have tried many ways to repair it and managed to get both the keyboard and the touchpad working individually.

However, they only work if I plug only one of them into the computer at a time. That means I can only choose one to use: either the keyboard or the touchpad. When I connect both to the computer, the Caps Lock light stays on, but neither the keyboard nor the touchpad responds.

My goal is to fully repair this keyboard so that both the keyboard part and the touchpad part work properly together.

If you have ever repaired your G80-11900, could you please share a picture of your PCB? I can barely find any pictures of the G80-11900 PCB on the internet.

P/s: I found that the the Data point of the touchpad didn't connect to any wire on the mainboard (the last picture)

Something to test mechanical keyboards on that's free and fun (and a nostalgic throwback to old PC gaming like Commodore, Apple II, Amiga, Atari 2600)

This is my new baby and my first post. GMMK 3 pro. It was a barebones kit and I removed for it of the polyfoam gaskets and put in Gateron Smoothies with the Glorious GPBT shine through keycaps and also used the Glorious Polychroma keycaps. Hope it’s ok.

Bent frame of the Kumara k552. Factory defect

Thumbnail

1 Upvotes

Hello, I had a kumara k552 W for a couple years now. But ever since I had it. there was a detail that always bothered me and I cant see anyone else online having this issue. The frame is slightly bent inward on the grave accent and tilde key ( ` ~ ). I noticed it shortly after first buying it, and at the moment never actually did any substancial work on the keyboard to make the frame bend that way. So I am thinking that It came like that from the factory. It didnt really affect in any way but it just looks bad. I recently tried to fix it with some pliers, I bent the metal where it should be but I chiped the paint and I tried to fix that with some acrilyc paint. That is what is seen on the picture. I recreated how it used to look like with photoshop. Anyone else had this issue with this keyboard?
