Amiga A500 / A500 Plus Keyboard Membrane (New)
£ 24.99 Excl. VAT
Amiga A500 Keyboard Membrane brand new. If you have issues with your Amiga A500 keyboard with missing keys or missing rows of keys the chances are the membrane needs replacing. The A500 / A500 Plus was supplied with at least 3 different types of keyboard membrane – A version by Samsung had 2 keyboard connectors and these keyboard membranes are NOT compatible. There are also keyboards made by Cherry (with the C= key instead of the left Amiga key) and by NME (these have red Amiga keys) again this membrane is NOT compatible.
This membrane is compatible ONLY with models which have a single keyboard connector – the Mitsumi membranes (part numbers 56 A619A and 56 A619B) both with and without the extra blank / international keys (ie 94 and 96 key versions). If your unsure by all means contact us.
What if you have missing keys or rows of keys on the Keyboard? Try these possible fixes first:
- Check the keyboard plug is inserted all the way in the connector on the Amiga A500 / A500 Plus mainboard.
- If it’s only 1 or two keys the plunger may need a clean, strip down the keyboard and clean the plunger with some IPA.
- If it’s a whole row of keys missing its a very strong possibility that the membrane on your needs replacing.
Do let us know if any of the above fixes help you!
