Question Razer BlackWidow V2 after distilled water bath

[Kogomid]

Hi, a few days ago I spilled coke on the keyboards and read on the forum where I found out I had to wash it in distilled water. It's been 3 days, I connect to the computer and the keyboard does not work. Lights up, in the computer shows that the BlackWidow V2 is connected, only the backlight reacts, but ignores the completely pressed keys. Anyone have any ideas?

You’re going to need to get yourself a new keyboard. Coke pretty much destroys everything

It worked before i bath it in water :/

So no keys work at all?
I'd say its dead, but really to clean it, you have to remove every key, use a toothbrush and clean. Not sure why you would submerge it in water though....strange
But if nothing is working, not even 1 key, I'd say its dead.
Coke is dreadful, there is a reason why it causes cancer

It wouldn’t of worked for a very long with Coke all over the inside it is very caustic

Okay, thanks.

After bathing it in water, did you dry it properly, and then did you shake it to make sure the water was all out of it?
How long before you bathed it after you got coke in it?
Maybe it should be a lesson to you, don't drink that crap Coke (and other soft drinks), and drink more water

You really will have to clear out each switch which would mean pulling each key and cleaning each switch carefully and making sure everything is dry just to make sure that it’s really broken

It's completely dry, if not, there must be water inside, but I waited 3 days before i plug it in.

3 days may sound long enough, but you have to vigorously shake the crap out of it, to make sure water still isn't inside. Any "blobs" of water will stay wet for ages.
