Hello,
The Atari 800 I got which has the older Hi-Tek (Part No 373-70115A) keyboard has an issue with the space keyswitch.

I can see the issue, the wire coming from the switch to the PCB has completely corroded out.

I need to replace the key switch. My question is, i have not seen any videos or instructions on how to replace one of these switches.

I am afraid that if i pull the screws keeping the keyboard PCB and the keyboard itself that the springs will drop all the over the place, making repair impossible.

Thanks
