I insert my PS3Key and nothing happens. No lights, nothing! What's wrong?
Applies to: PS3Key
Unfortunately, a small number of PS3Keys (estimated at less than 1% of the total produced so far) were shipped with a little less insulating tape than they should have been. This is causing the metal contacts on the bottom of the circuit board to short circuit on the metal case. Don't worry, though! This isn't a fatal short circuit, your PS3Key has not been damaged.
To remedy this problem, simply remove the PCB and affix extra tape, as shown below:
1) Remove the blue plastic cap and bend the small metal clamps open:
2) Slide the cicruit board out of the metal case:
3) Flip the circuit board over and affix a nice big piece of insulating tape. If your tape is quite thin, use 2 layers just to be sure:
That's it! Panic over! We're very sorry if you've had to do this.. it wasn't intentional, just a little mishap at the factory!
