Razer Blackwidow Ultimate BF4 Edition Stopped Working

Last night a spilled a very very VERY small amount of water on a couple keys, maybe like a teaspoon, probably less. so i took off all of the wet keys and wiped the wet areas.  I thought that there was no way any water was left.  After that the keyboard stopped working but the orange backlighting was.  Some of the keys would get recognized, but i wasn't pressing them.  I took off all of the keys and put the keyboard upside down and went to sleep.  This morning i replugged it in and now none of it is working.  Is there anything I can o to fix it.

I can help with programming and hardware.

try RMA, if that doesn't work, well you can take the whole keyboard apart and hope you can clean it that way.

If you want my attention, quote meh! D: or just stick an @samcool55 in your post :3

Yes because that will prevent anyone from destroying their keyboard again by spilling liquid in it.

Sounds like you shorted it out. You can try and RMA it but good luck.

What is RMA

Of course it won't. However, in my experience, corsair has much better customer support.

To OP, try RMAing it. Send it in and they 'MIGHT' send a replacement. Or refund.

What is RMA

Sending it back to razer would be RMA'ing it.

Switching to Corsair isn't the best recommendation in this situation. He isn't asking for a new keyboard.

Wait a couple of days. My blackwidow fixed itself after 3 days even though the LEDs were working and such.

Yes spending more money by paying shipping on broken products is the best customer support ever. :rolleyes:
