Re: Key Pad Problem

Hi and Welcome to the Community!

 

Hmmm..."not functioning well"...I can only guess (uselessly) as to exactly what that means. Perhaps you could give us just a bit more detail? Like for instance, what exactly happens when you press those keys?

 

Many issues like this are caused by moisture intrusion...is there any chance you BB got wet? If so, then

REMOVE YOUR BB BATTERY NOW!!!

Run, don't walk, to this FAQ:

Do everything it says, including waiting the maximum recommended time. Applying power to your BB between it getting wet and doing this process reduces the chances of success. Further, the only thing predictable about moisture intrusion into a BB (indeed, any electronic device) is that the results will be unpredictable. I've seen some come back up right away and be fine. I've seen others never work at all. I've seen still others run for a bit, and then die later. And every thing in between.

Good luck!
