Hi :beige: ,

i recently bought a Lisa 2/5 with keyboard and Profile 5MB on Ebay, The lady wasnt working due to corrosion on the motherboard and i/o board :( But after spending hours of cleaning and fixing some minor issues (like the reset was stuck on low because of a broken reset button) i finally could make it to the starting screen :b&w:

Ok so far, but now i figured out that the keyboard doesnt work at all. Its not just the foam issue (most of the pads were still looking good..i assume :b&w: ),but i couldnt get it work even if i touched the pads on the keyboard pcb slightly with my fingertips after removing the keyboard tray.

Does someone have an idea what i have to look for to get the keyboard working again? Or do i have to look for another keyboard....

Btw its an upgraded Lisa 1 (i assume) with Applenet id 00100075, Manufactured 83060 (march 1983) and ROMs F/A8. The Profile HDD fails self test (the drive cant read Track 77, for reason unknown).

Any help would be appreciated :) I also need a mouse, if some1 could spare one very cheap... :)
