Re: Issues with a model F

I'm no expert on caps, but they looked fine to me, they were one of the first things I checked when it stopped working as I was afraid one might have popped (I've changed out the caps in old guitar amps where they're oozing, not fun). I wound up sending it back and took a chance on an "untested" one ...

Re: Problem with stuck/unresponsive key on IBM Model M


That being said, as long as OP has the right basic tools, it should be a walk in the park!


As someone who just finished their second bolt mod in less than two weeks...it's a very long walk in the park. Well worth it, though.

To the OP, I've had this same issue with the R key on a model M and ...

Issues with a model F
