Title
Roccat Ryos MK Glow key led and key switch Replacement
Introduction
regardless if you want to replace a burned out led, or replace a switch for a different kind. this guide will show you the the steps necessary to open your keyboard, desolder the led, desolder the switch, remove both and resolder the new led and the new switch.
in my case, I spilled tea on the keyboard, this burned the left shift led and switch. instead of buying new parts, I used the "break" key switch and led as a donor.
the tools you'll need are:
[https://www.ifixit.com/Store/Tools/64-Bit-Driver-Kit/IF145-299-1|a Phillips head screw driver(] I recommend the protech toolkit)]
a [https://www.ifixit.com/Store/Tools/Jimmy/IF145-259-1|Jimmy] or a similar tool to separate the foam feet.
[https://www.ifixit.com/Store/Tools/Tweezers/IF145-020-5|Tweezers ] or a small plier to help you pull the leds and key switches from their sockets
[https://www.ifixit.com/Store/Tools/Soldering-Station/IF145-018-1|a soldering iron]
[https://www.ifixit.com/Store/Tools/Lead-Free-Solder/IF145-077-1|some new solder ]
[https://www.ifixit.com/Store/Tools/Desoldering-Braid/IF145-079-1|some desoldering braid] or a [http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B000LFTN4S|desoldering pump ] (personally, I prefer the pump and this guide is done using the pump)
you will void your warranty with this fix and I take no responsibility for anything that goes wrong or any damange that may incur, that said. the changes are very slim that something will go wrong (if I didnt break my keyboard, you wont either!)
