WOW. Thank you so much for this guide. My keyboard wasn't connecting and last time I had to send it to Acer ...and that took a month. This time it is out of warranty and it wouldn't connect again!!!.... After opening it following this guide, it was immediately visible that the cable was out.
Thank you SO much!
put it aside and then?
Hey,
Whenever you see a 'put aside' anywhere in a guide there's an implied 'then continue' afterwards.
Hope that helps!
