ok, here is a question. my keypad quit working on a pro 39. i tried to clean
the tips off a little on the keys themselves. then i used a pencil eraser on
the pc board to clean it off the contacts a bit. i had seen somewhere, that
was good to do. is it? when i tried my scanner again, most of the buttons
work, but like 3 of them. 3 that had worked before! did the eraser cause
harm? how can i counteract that? as to the key pad, i've been checking this
thread out, so will follow along with the tips as shown. btw, was told i
can't get parts even keypad for the pro 39 as it is able to be modified to
cell and some stupid law prevents the shack from selling parts or repair
manuals for those types of scanners. is that radio shack bs or what? tia....
