to do this nor what kind of wire to best use to replace the faulty 
connector between motherboard 1 and 2 which I think are at the base 
of the keybaord case.

summaries of the fix on the internet so far. I don't think I will 
want to attempt it unless I have some pretty detailed instructions to 
go on as the keyboard is worth far more to me for nostalgia than for 
money.
