I've been using it for three days. It was working fine until yesterday, but when I woke up and turned on the computer, it wouldn't boot. When I connected it to another computer, the keyboard didn't work. So I opened the keyboard and found the daughterboard burned out. Why is this happening? Where can I get a daughterboard?

Contact support if the daughterboard is fried. No one here could help you with that.

Looks like the fb1 - frerrite bead

Most likely thermal runaway effect

Definitely not normal the fb may of bean cracked or damaged

I recommend to check the keybardPCB as well Incase this may of also damaged components near there

#

Like hall sensors or LEDs

#

What should I do?

If you sent a ticket best to wait for a response we can send replacement jst/daughterboard to resolve the issue

For now just checking if anything else may be damaged from the proximity of the fb1

(Edit phone auto correct)

thank you

#

To me, there doesn't appear to be any damage to any other parts.

delicate furnace
#

I will mostly like try to find that ticket later when back

But pictures of the PCB would also be appreciated as we like to invisgate these matter

Also picture of the bottom of the PCR case Incase the heat damage that

Hmm looks like the led is slightly brown

proud shore
#

where is led?

delicate furnace
proud shore
#

oh i think too

delicate furnace
#

Led / RGB that produces the lighting

#

It might be fine and just a cosmetic issue but would require replacement parts to tell

I live in Korea. How do I solve this problem?

#

There seems to be a little bit of soot on the side you mentioned.

delicate furnace
#

We will send the replacement jst/daughter board

if the keyboard has any issues once powered like the led is dead or hall sensors doesn't work we will escalate further

proud shore
#

thank you

#

You can't see it in the picture, but there are soot marks here.

delicate furnace
#

Yes

PCB/components are rated for certain temperature for soldering so while the led / area may have some residue/soot it possible the PCB is fine and just a cosmetic issue can attempt to wipe this with iPa and a brush and see if this removes the residue

I believe the residue is from the ferrite bead so could be limited to that is only affected
