[sdiy] Need urgent help, Juno 106 key contact broken lead

[Julien Delgoulet]

Hi Gil !

"Funny" my 106 had the same issue.
What I did is : 

#1 : Use a small pin ( the one you use when you "sew" ;-) )
#2 : remove the solder mask using it to reach the "track"
#3 : Simply had a wire (I use resistors legs that I kept when soldering stuff).

This worked perfectly and was done in no time.
I pushed some photos here : http://giorgo2001.free.fr/Juno106 so you can see the whole process.

Good Luck !
