I replaced all the keys on my keyboard, so I know how to put them in, and I've tried putting new stitches in the places that they don't work. Maybe I messed something up on the motherboard? But then wouldn't all the keys not work rather than just some of them?

Did you try with other switch or the switch alone in a protoboard?

I have tried with other switches, brand new ones at that, and it still wont work. I put an LED into one of the places that the switch doesn't work and the LED lights up so i at least know it's getting power, any ideas?

If brand new keys won't work (I assume you can test them in a small circuit to test the switches themselves) possibly the PCB is damaged, rusted or shorted with solder. If the specific group of keys are wired to the same input pins in the micrcontroller, possibly is the pin or pins that are rusted or shorted (or maybe is a firmware issue, did you flashed it recently). If you can send a pic I'll be glad to look
