strafe rgb Keys not displaying the correct colour

[LoneNoble]

I have had this strafe for a long time now, and I haven't wanted to replace it.

 

It seems its finally kicked the bucket, the following keys display yellow:

-Alt GR

-Fn

-C

-X

-Z

-\

-SHIFT

 

And my left control key refuses to display any colour except red, turning itself off when my blue ripple effect passes over it...

 

I went to run a firmware update, but it says it doesn't have one, im also worried it may be a hardware issue...

 

I have attached 2 images demonstrating this issue, with the colour set to all white, but the keys showing up differently

 

Any insight corsair?

Same thing happened to my K70. I get a row of keys displaying green on boot up. I tried a soft reset, hard reset and nothing worked. I even took it apart but could see nothing wrong.

 

How old is your keyboard? Mine is 4 years old.

Mine is closer to 2 years old now, shorter than I want the lifespan to be for an expensive keyboard like the strafe

I imagine some of the leds inside of the rgb led have died. The problem I have with my k70 lights is that one or two won't match the others (assuming pure white), but it can change from key to key seemingly randomly (every few days). I imagine the problem is the controller, but I stopped caring so long as I can see them. Edited December 4, 2018 by madcap123
