Title: DIY key plunger for cpc664
Post by: kolleykibber on 00:09, 11 May 24
Hi all,

Has anybody located or fashioned a new key plunger for a 664? As it's unseen, I guess it doesn't need to be an exact replica, just needs to hang on to the key and bridge the membrane contacts (gently).

I have one last key to fix to get this one done...

What does the plunger look like as I may have some?

I've just seen your reply sorry, @Blank_Reg . Thank you for the offer. I ended up using some Amiga 500 plungers as they are nearly identical, both Mitsumi. The inner diameter is a little wider, but a little bit of blue tack and they work fine.
