Razer Blackwidow Chroma M key stopped working

[ajhockey3]

I'm new to mechanical gaming keyboards. The M key just started spamming on its own then stopped now the M key doesn't work. The LED works just not the key.

Sounds like a bad contact underneath. I'd see about getting Razer to RMA it.

I'm not experienced with gaming keyboards I'm used to IBM's when it comes to mechanical. I had no warrenty so i took it appart myself. Resoldered it. works good now. Definitly not practical

Well it looks like you have more than enough experience with fixing electronics yourself.

Yeah, sometimes there's a few loose switches. Razer has hit or miss quality control at best, the keyboards are good if you get one that works but occasionally this happens.

Also if anyone in the future searches this and trys to take their keyboard appart themselves. When you have all screws undone on the back use something thats not sharp to unsnap the clips as I have a mark at the razer logo at the bottem of the keyboard and it looks bad.
