M0110 Keyboard (only display symbol characters?)

[myequation]

Hello folks,

I recently purchased a early M0110 Keyboard.  When plugged into my Mac Plus it only displays symbol characters.

The only keys that work correctly are space,backspace etc.  Letters are all weird symbols.

The Mac Plus is a tested and working system, I've had no issues with other keyboards.

Is this a common issue with an easy fix?  Or is the keyboard faulty?

Thanks,

Sounds like one of the Option keys stuck in the down position.  Try pressing firmly and wiggling your finger on the Option keys.

Hot Damn, Thanks for the reminder on option keys.

I decided to popoff the option keys and add a small drop of Deox-it to the switch. Fixed It!

Original M0110 keyboards have become expensive. I really wanted this one to work
