I spilled oil on my laptop a few days back. I wiped it off and continued using it as it didn't seem as though the oil had gotten to the hardware. It worked fine for about 2 days then it just switched off, a lil smoke came from it. It won't switch back on or respond, but the light by charging port keeps blinking. Don't know what to do, should I keep trying to switch it on?
How does one remove oil, lubricant, or the liquid from a snow globe from the plastic sheets [with conductive traces] of a keyboard?
Originally, I didn't think that the liquid was conductive, or not conductive enough to be an issue. e and backspace were the only problem children. Now run away keystrokes [keyboard driver receiving mixed signals?]
I've had the keyboard apart a few times, attempting to clean with a dry clean rag and a et [water] rag.
I think I need some form of cleaner, degreaser, compressed air?
Anyone get oil or lubricant spilled on a keyboard before, any recommendations on cleaners?
