8.1 Type of keyboard fault.
Insert a SIM card and attach a fully charged battery. Start the phone using the On/
Off-button. If the phone doesn´t start at all, proceed to chapter 3 (“Doesn´t start”-
fault).
Press all keys and verify which one that doesn´t start.
The easiest way to do the verification is as follow:
•
Go to Menu/Settings/Key sound and choose “Click”.
•
Press the keys "1", "2", "3"... ..."*"," 0" ," #". You should hear a click sound and
see the responding figure in the display when pressing each key. Then press
"Yes", "No", "Clr", "<" and" >". When pressing "Yes" the phone tries to connect
a call, press "No" and the phone should stop connecting a call. Press "<" or " >"
and you scroll the menus and "Clr" clears the display from the figures that came
up.
Open the phone and check for liquid damages, especially around the faulty keys.
Clean the keyboard pads thoroughly and assemble the phone with a new keyboard.
Check if the keys are working according to the test above.
•
If a complete row or a complete column (according to fig. 8.1) is faulty, proceed
to section 8.2.
•
If only some keys are faulty, proceed to section 8.3.
