A number of keys on this Meike MK-908 keyboard were either dead or functioning erratically, and this was driving its owner nuts. Although he also owned and played more expensive 'branded' keyboards, this MK-908 was dear to him as it was his first. Turned out that the culprits were 6 torn silicon soft-touch switches. With no replacements available, it was up to Super Glue to set things right.

This strip alone houses 6 torn switches.

Time for a few drops of Super Glue.
Waiting for the Super Glue to dry.
Super Glue has dried sufficiently. Switch strip has been reinstalled and it's time for a final check before putting the MK-908 back together. Thank goodness they're all working now. No more dead keys. Long live Super Glue! Time for Nusantara and Kopi Jantan :)
