Hello, I have serious issues with my keyboard. I washed it yesterday , only the buttons and i think some water went in there because it started malfunctioning last night. I took the buttons out again and left it to dry a bit , i left it for about 17 hours to dry.

The problems are:
When i press b it comes up with = b4 and if i press 4 it comes up with b4
When i press n it comes up with = n7 and if i press 7 it comes up with n7
When i press ? it comes up with = ?) and if i press ) it comes up with ?)

And there are other keys with the same problem. Cann i do a reset to my keyboard? Is it a malfunction and i should replace it? Can i reset all the buttons o.O ?

Than7ks

Water in a keyboard is a no-no. You can replace it at almost any dept store for $25 or less.

Well it wasnt that much water, it was like in the keys when i put them in....

Money aint the problem, i just dont want to spend it if i can fix it... So is it not possible to reset my keys? or is the keyboard sending wrong commands?

My < button doesnt work either...


Edit: Dissembled keyboard , put it back together and now it works ^^ Solved!
