Water damage to keyboard?

Zdos123 · Nov 5, 2016

I was playing on my computer last night when i spilt water all over my keyboard. I tried to dry it out but certain keys such as 1 and q and others don't work. What should i do?

Keyboard : 16 year old Apple pro keyboard (I was on a budget and i have come to love it)

URGENT!!!

Hello... Typically you need to open it up and get the large drops/debris sucked up... and let it Air dry for a day or two before powering back up... Is it a membrane or mechanical switch keyboard?

Update : all the water has dried out but keys still not working i think they have shorted, It's done good for 16 years i will now put a rest with the Imac it came with. RIP Apple pro keyboard 2000 - 2016.

Hello... Moment of silence... B I

I always had my OEM Dell back in the day... you can still pick them up for $3.99 at the local Goodwill re-cyclers... now I'm mechanical.

The construction and Logic they use in a membrane keyboard, makes it easy to catch debris in them... there is only one circuit board in it... right where the cord comes out of it... they use multipath, conductive Plastic sheets in it, for the circuit paths, between the silicon membrane.
