Issue disconnecting keybed, NS2 EX Compact

Postby mjenkeys » 16 Oct 2018, 15:56

Hi there,
This is my first post here, and I hope someone can help me.
I'm trying to disconnect the keybed of my NS2 Ex Compact as I believe some dirt is causing one key to play full velocity. I'm stumped as to how the smaller of the 3 ribbon connecters disconnects as it's hard to tell which direction it needs to be pulled and I don't want to force it. Also the tiny pcb that it is attached to, which sits on the rear of the keybed,slides about which is rather disconcerting! (It is screwed in but not stuck down, is this normal??)
Any help greatly appreciated, many thanks

Well I managed to disconnect it eventually, thanks to discovering Marc's (msfoto) very helpful guide which had a page about that circuit board being removable (see attached)
I can stop sweating now!
Cheers
Martin
