Clanking keys on PC3LE6

[David Oliver]

I successfully repaired a non-responsive key by cleaning the contact points. Now upon reassembling the whole thing I find that each key, upon release makes a clanking sound... that is, the back of the key taps the metal just above it. All that is needed is a tiny bit of clearance to eliminate this sound. This is a purely mechanical problem. Any ideas about how to adjust which screw in which place to fix this? As far as I can tell everything is back together as it previously was.

They're usually pretty good about supplying info for DIY repairs.

Also here's a couple of youtubes that may help.

Thanks happyrat! These videos should help for future reference. After a long while I discovered that my problem was in the correct placement of the two long strips of wood under the keybed. I had unknowingly switched the front and back, believing them to be the same...they are not!
Necessity is the mother of incompetence.
