Hey guys, so I spilled water on my g15(orange) keyboard by accident. I left home for a bit, came home and tried to use it again and it worked for a second.... But then none of the keys worked.
I opened it up, and the right side of the circuit board felt a little cold/maybe damp I guess. I just popped it in my preheated oven at 100f and left it there for about 30 minutes.
The G macro keys seem to be working, all the LEDS work fine, but there's absolutely no response from any keys except the G macro keys.
Any ideas on whether it will work again, or did I short it completely and it will never work again?
P.S. Thanks.

Took it apart, let it sit all night, still the same keys do not work.

Think it's pretty much dead then, same thing happend to an old G15, first gen.
Took it apart and checked everything for damage and nothing I could tell and put it back together, still the whole QWERTYUIOPÅ row does not work.
