    • Disconnect 3x flex cables

    In my experience, the length and position of these flex cables can make it quite awkward to get them back in place. When reassembling, I always start from the back.

Dear author,

I've done the replacement the exact same way, though I did it without your guide. Yet, my keyboard does not work properly after replacement i.e. WASD keys not working, UP DOWN LEFT RIGHT not working. What could be the problem? Kindly contact me via yukozashireiji@gmail.com
