Razer Keyboard: No rgb working - blackwidow v3 hyperspeed phantom edition

Fri, 15 Nov 2024 18:57:27 -0700

here is the story, I haven't done anything wrong like spilling water on it or stuff like that but the "ALL" rgb has died on the keyboard the thing is if I wait about an hour if my keyboard is unplugged but on (it goes power saving mode) all the rgb will flash white for less then a second when the keyboard wakes up (I touch a key) so I don't know if its a problem with a controller somewhere or if one key has died and that made the whole thing go haywire because all the keys and functions of eveything work fine.
I have tried everything from hard resting it to letting it fully die and starting it to spamming fn and u to turn brightness up and using a different computer from being wireless and plugged in, if anyone has an idea or if my thing is just dead an answer would be nice

Razer Keyboard: Razer TarTarus Pro Game Controller HELP!

Sun, 28 Jul 2024 13:28:14 -0700

So I am not sure if others have run into this or not, but I have purchased like 5 of the Tartarus line of keypads that allow for easier gameplay for me. However, on all of these devices, the cable seems to break or is very sensitive to connection to the computer so after like 6 months or so it will start disconnecting/reconnecting rapidly. the only solution I have so far found is to replace the cable and it goes away, or I buy a new one. I am at the point now where I would rather not keep buying into their products esp when they do not even remotely support right to repair.. I tried to ask them nicely if I could get a couple of the cables so I didn't have to keep buying new ones and they flat out said NO we don't sell those parts. Wasnt shocked but I was frustrated. So if anyone out there has a connection to their manufacturing or a way to get some of those cables, please let me know I could really use about 5. I am not asking for them for free LOL!

The other reason I use their product is because back in 2015 I broke my arm and I am not unable to rotate my wrist in a comfortable way to be able to use a regular keyboard. so I use the TarTarus line of devices to help me play video games.

Also IFix it if you have a way to repair them PLEASE let me know:)

Razer Keyboard: Razer Turret keyboard not turning on

Sat, 01 Apr 2023 21:13:36 -0700

I don’t see the razer turret keyboard on the repair list and I’m just curious if it’s something y’all would accept to repair. I’ve tried resetting it, letting it die and recharge it, now it doesn’t seem to charge or turn on at all.

Razer BlackWidow Chroma: single key not working but switch appears to work fine?

Mon, 18 Oct 2021 12:23:16 -0700

ok so my C key isn’t working.
I’ve checked and when depressed it reads 0 resistance, when up it shows as open circuit.

it looks like one of the pads may be not connected correctly or have a short to somewhere.

if I connect the pad to another pad in the same position relative to the key it will respond but then types X not C!

Razer BlackWidow Chroma: Keyboard Not Working , Lights Not Lighting Up, But Wires Work.

Tue, 27 Apr 2021 11:34:04 -0700

This question is not about ‘Razer BlackWisow Chroma’, but instead ‘Corsair K70 Vengence’. I couldn’t use that as the chosen device, however.

The cable to my keyboard had a bad connection, so I soldered it up. I tested the continuity of every pin and cable, and it’s fine. However, the keyboard won’t work — keyboard doesn’t register and LEDs don’t light up. The passthrough USB, however, works fine; I can plug a normal mouse into it and move it around on the computer as if it had been plugged into the computer normally.

And ideas as to what could be the issue?

Razer Blackwidow Tournament Edition Chroma: Why does Razer blackwidow chroma TE miss keystrokes randomly?

Sat, 22 Feb 2020 18:06:18 -0700

My keyboard randomly misses keystrokes on different keys. Sometimes it is the ‘m’ key, other times it is the number 5 or the letter ‘s’ or spacebar at random.

The down arrow key is the worst with almost 30% hits not registered. Is it a problem with those respective switches OR is the keyboard logic board / electronic circuitry gone bad

Razer BlackWidow Chroma: Is the key switch broken or is it something else?

Razer Blackwidow Ultimate 2013: Water spilled,dried and still no function Razer Blackwidow Ultimate'16

I spilled water on my Razer Blackwidow Ultimate 2016 Edition. (didnt give the option for 2016 edition in title) I immediately dried it off at unplugged it. I took it apart and cleaned small amount of corrosion off connection with 91% isopropyl. After completely drying for a a couple days, I reassembled it. After plugging it in, the keyboard work but spoty. This eventually went to not working at all. After more research, I disassembled it again after finding a thread which suggested an isopropyl bath. Was going to try this was seeking other opinions if this does not work or if this was the correct troubleshooting procedd.

Razer Blackwidow Ultimate 2013: Why is my keyboard not responding?

Sat, 08 Sep 2018 02:53:32 -0700

After not using my computer for a few days, I come back to it simply not responding to my typing. After some testing and troubleshooting, I’m relatively certain that the issue is with my Razer keyboard. Using a virtual keyboard, I’ve found that when I push any button on the keyboard, the AltGr, Shift and Windows button all become pressed in and later release through an unknown combination of keystrokes. In addition, when it does not think that said buttons are pushed in, it only seems to react to the Shift, Ctrl and Alt buttons. All drivers are up to date and the issue seems to be software based as far as I can tell.

Razer Blackwidow Ultimate 2013: DEATHSTALKER Ultimate Question - Wire diagnostic

Fri, 09 Mar 2018 22:23:30 -0700

I have had this deathstalker for a while now and sadly warrenty has ended. I was wondering if at all anyone knew what the 8 pin connector comprised of.

I know 2 are the I/O and another 2 are for grounding or atleast the metal mesh that encases the wire. What would the rest be?
