Which model of keyboard is this, because my A1255 doesn’t disassemble like this - the battery terminal is solidly restrained inside the tube by means of a metal expansion ring. Doesn’t seem user repairable :(

My power button was stuck. The shell was dented. This was an easier way to access and remove the button so I was able to file the inside of the tube smooth so the button would move freely.

I have disassembled my keyboard as shown above, but now I need a replacement Wireless Keyboard Logic Board. I have not been able to find one. Any suggestions?

Very nice! in my case the flat cable was not properly connecting. I only found out when i opened the cap to the logic board and saw the cable sitting slanted in its connector. Put it back straight and now it works again. Cheers!!
