Nokia 105 RM-908 Keypad Ways: Complete Guide to Tracing, Jumpering, and Repairing Keypad Malfunctions
Published by: Mobile Repair Hub
Difficulty Level: Intermediate (Soldering and basic schematic reading required)
Phase 3: Component Replacement (Advanced)
If multiple keys fail or ghost typing occurs:
The issue is likely the Keypad Filter/EMI Filter IC. nokia 105 rm 908 keypad ways
Single Key Failure: Usually caused by dirt, oxidation, or a worn-out carbon pad. Nokia 105 RM-908 Keypad Ways: Complete Guide to
If specific keys are not responding, the internal track or a series resistor on the PCB is likely damaged. Apply UV solder mask or a piece of
Step 6: Insulation and Testing
- Apply UV solder mask or a piece of Kapton tape over the jumper to prevent shorting to the metal chassis.
- Reassemble the keypad flex and battery temporarily.
- Test each key. If all rows and columns register, the repair is successful.
- Identify which keys fail.
- Refer to matrix map to determine if it's a Row issue (all keys in that row dead) or Column issue (all keys in that column dead).
- Trace the faulty row/column from the keypad contact pad to the UEM.
- Corrosion, rust, or liquid damage around keypad traces
- Broken traces or cracked PCB near flex joints
- Worn or flattened conductive pads on elastomer
Q4: After jumpering, some keys trigger double presses. Why?
A: Your jumper wire is too long and acting as an antenna, or you have a cold solder joint causing intermittent connection. Re-solder with less wire length and more flux.
: Keypad paths often run from the button pads to the CPU or specific resistors/capacitors. For instance, the C107 capacitor
