So, I cleaned all the roach poop off gently with alcohol and q-tips (see before and after) but read in another thread (see attached) to remove ribbon cable and clean edge but I don't think my ribbon cable can be removed. Is there anything else I can unattached and clean the poop to make sure it's all clean (and HOPEFULLY working :-) Remove the ribbon cable from the keypad to the control board at the control board. Clean the edge connector. If it is the type where there is not a connector just the insulation is removed, it can be cleaned with a pencil eraser. Do not use an ink eraser as it is too abrasive. Check the tracks in the ribbon cable for hairline cracks. A magnifying glass helps here. Would not hurt to clean the connector on the board. Use electronics contact cleaner or isopropyl alcohol and a tooth brush. Be gentle and do not reconnect till all the solvent evaporates. Reconnect everything and give it a try.
