Hyphen key stopped working on DAS Keyboard X50Q

[Megahurtz400]

Hey all,

As per title, all of a sudden the hyphen key has stopped working on my keyboard.

Any ideas what might have caused this or is it likely to be a hardware fault?

Thanks

Either a software issue - so try the keyboard in a different PC - or a switch is busted.

I just repaired a Filco with Cheery MX Browns after one key stop working and one would occasionally stick on. Was two broken switches in my case; mind you, I had dropped a very heavy box on the keyboard, so it was all my fault.

Open the keyboard up and check the continuity of the switch when depressed with a multimeter. Maybe also try squirting some contact cleaner down it if you think it's gunked up.
