Browser issues

Anyone know what the little interface board between my 600xl keyboard ribbon and the header on the motherboard is called? And whats it for? Just added a working 800xl keyboard to my 600xl without the board and no keys work. I had issues with ribbon cable on old keyboard and the interface board so had to butcher the board and cable to try to fix it. Now it looks like i need a new board to go with this 800xl keyboard?

Im pretty sure its the switch, ill strip it down and resolder the switch and socket today, see if it makes a diffference

Is it spst or spdt? Appreciate Advice cheers...
