Re: IIe keyboard cable question

[buggie@capella.unm.edu (stephen e buggie)]

Since there is only one cable connecting the IIe keyboard to the
motherboard, the lamp power _MUST_ come via that cable!

Check the bulb ---- I've replaced bad bulbs before.

As an imp[rovement, I drill 3/66" diameter holes in the IIe casing above
the keyboard, and install LED lamps that are powered by +5v and +12v lines
from the front edge of the motherboard.  The two LED lamps tell me that
all is will regarding power....    Steve Buggie
