Okay so I spilled some Pepsi on my keyboard but even though it didn't seem like a lot the back lighting all seemed to stop working immediately and became unresponsive. I unplugged it from my pc and left it to dry overnight but it still isn't working. The back lighting has come back on when I plugged it in again but still absolutely none of the keys work. Is this the sort of problem where I'll have to clean the individual key switches? or has the problem gotten to the circuit board and the electronic underneath do you think?

Thanks in advance.
 
Okay this is weird, I took my keyboard to two local repair shops who both basically pronounced it dead so I brought it back and was plugging in my spare keyboard at the same time and for some reason when I have both plugged in at the same time my mechanical one which I spilled the drink on now works again.
