Keyboard Fn key "stuck on" in keyboard controler?

#1 Post by yert33 » Thu Jun 24, 2010 10:56 am

One of my users spilled water on his T61 keyboard. We disassembled it and dried it out and it wasn't very wet at all, mostly under the LH side of the palm rest. After re-assembly the TP would not turn on. Left it overnight. Turns on now and boots up! Yea! But the keyboard is acting like the Fn key is pressed. So we swapped keyboards with another working T61 and the same thing happened.

Anyone know what the cause of this could be?

TIA,

Remove the battery and disconnnect power. Let it dry out a few more days.
