TGB1718 Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 I recently purchased some key posts for my 130XE, but when the items turned up, they didn't fit the XE keyboard, but I think I've seen somewhere that Amiga key posts will fit, I found these and they look very similar, has anyone else used these as a fix for a 130XE ? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/164928051328?_trkparms=aid%3D1110006%26algo%3DHOMESPLICE.SIM%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20140131123730%26meid%3Df2ab2235f9ee4b64b7bee40b7b126484%26pid%3D100167%26rk%3D2%26rkt%3D15%26sd%3D164585986005%26itm%3D164928051328%26pmt%3D0%26noa%3D1%26pg%3D5411%26algv%3DDefaultOrganic&_trksid=p5411.c100167.m2940 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sikor Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 It's two different keyboards (mechanically) for XE models, so... First you can look, wchich one you have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mazzspeed Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 I think there's also two or possibly three keyboard variants for the A500, don't assume they're all created equal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nolium Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 (edited) For Mitsumi XE keyboard, I have this type on my 130XE and 65XE. So your keyboard is not made by Mitsumi? Edited July 13, 2021 by Nolium Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TGB1718 Posted July 13, 2021 Author Share Posted July 13, 2021 @Nolium thanks for that link, they do look like the ones in my keyboard, however how do I tell what keyboard I have, there is no lettering etc. to say what it is, only this sticker.

TGB1718 Posted July 24, 2021 Author Share Posted July 24, 2021 Just an update, just received the key-posts from the link in my original post and they fit perfectly, 130XE back working properly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
