Bad Keyboard

[bird@nwsrs.nw.att.com (J. L. Walters)]

My neighbor's IIgs keyboard is acting up. It sometimes works and
at other times it is erratic. It works fine if plugged into the
other side. Based on info from the net I looked at the five solder
points for the offending plug. They looked fine, however, I still
heated them up enough to melt the solder on pins 1-4. Pin 5 is
quite large and has a ton of good looking solder on it so I didn't
bother.
 
Having the circuit board out of the case and plugged into the bad
side I can cause it to become erratic by bending the board
slightly. Since I couldn't see any signs of broken traces I
suspect that the female plug on the board is bad. Is there a
source of these plugs? What is the number for the plug?
 
Any and all help appreciated.
