pawwilon Posted June 7, 2020 Share Posted June 7, 2020 (edited) Hello, I just saw https://forum.corsair.com/v3/showthread.php?p=813831 after reviving a liquid-damaged k70 I had lying around for months, it's the OG, Red backlight, original Logo version (PCB sticker: 690-K1529R-C05U, CL160323) I took it apart down to PCB, cleaned all visible traces of damage with alcohol-covered Qtips from the back, let some alcohol through the space hole, let it dry and re-connected it. It's currently flashing the Num/Caps/Scroll lock when connected to the PC, the only other light to turn on is the windows Lock key. The keyboard IS working to some extent (slapped a few de-capped keys, with correct inputs displayed in notepad). Based on the thread linked above, would it be possible to at least attempt re-viving this keyboard's flash? It's something I had laying around for spares, and decided to take apart for fun. Kind regards, Pav. Edited June 8, 2020 by pawwilon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pawwilon Posted July 6, 2020 Author Share Posted July 6, 2020 Well thanks for "help" mr customer support. Doing a quick google after seeing your disappointing reply, I found your own support page providing me with a solution to my problem here: https://help.corsair.com/hc/en-us/articles/360025465031-How-to-Reset-your-keyboard it's a shame that you can't even do bare minimum to attempt keeping your products out of e-waste landifills. I rate this forum 1/8. I guess it led me to find the solution myself after all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
