Re: 32Sii mushy keys Message #9 Posted by Lincoln R. on 1 Nov 2011, 12:37 p.m., in response to message #1 by David Griffith
Sorry for the lack of serious replies (including my own)... Anyhow, have the keys always been mushy, or did this happen over time? Is it most/all of the keys or only a few?
If they've always been mushy/it was like this when you got it, that may just be the way it is, I've seen a lot of variance in Pioneer keyboards, ranging from very firm and snappy to almost impossible to feel when the button has been pushed.
If it's just a few/this happened over time, it's probably the mylar sheets wearing out. I'm not sure if much can be done for this short of painstakingly disassembling the calculator and replacing the sheets with ones from another calculator (You might be able to get spare parts relatively cheaply by buying a 10B, those frequently sell for $15 or less on TAS).
