Add a little dielectric grease to the battery end cap. Had considerable corrosion despite batteries not leaking. Strange design.
Wow! This fixed actually worked! I was about to thrown this A1314 keyboard out (2009 model)! You can remove the plastic "cap" with a precision flathead screwdriver. Also, be careful when disassembling the ribbon cable - there is a plastic retaining clip holding it in place. Use the precision screwdriver to carefully release the tabs on either side and then pop it out. The ribbon cable will then easily side out. By the way...I'm typing this comment on my newly fixed wireless keyboard! Thanks again!
its great having this guide. I got the keyboard to work again.
from time to time it makes error sound and interfering apps such as blinking pop up menus ... speaking about MacBook Pro 2017 Monterey
Not to mention that it's not connecting to MacBook Air M1 at all ... )) Goodby my 2009 bluetooth .. Sad ..It is like new and working with other apps except adobe )
