Fixing my PET 4032 Keyboard

Post by Chgowiz »

Hello everyone.

My first time posting to a PET forum. Long story short, I have a PET 4032 that used to turn on and work just fine, about 5 years ago. It's been in my basement. Between then and now, something happened and it will turn on and boot up, but I have no keyboard except for the space key, which results in two characters <space>:

I'm not sure where to begin to start fixing to get this working again. I have an old cassette record that I'd eventually like to get this all working.

Suggestions on where/how to begin?

Thank you!

Have you tried opening it up and pushing down on all the socketed chips?

Truly,
