Razer Blackwidow Chroma keyboard, keys not working and lighting is incorrect

Hello,

I have a (now very old) Blackwidow Chroma v1 and it works MOSTLY well. This issue has been around for a while, however because I am now working from home more it really is starting to bother me.

I have some issues as some of my keys are not working despite being lit up, such as numbers 1-3,7-9 on the right hand keypad as well as the down button. Another side problem which doesn’t bother me as much but it still weird is that despite selecting one colour on Static, say blue, z & n flicker orange, 6 on the number pad is a bright cyan. 

I have tried, ‘factory resetting it’, by that I mean putting it into demo mode and back to user mode. I’ve spent all day taking apart the keys, dusting it and cleaning the board with isopropanol, nothing has seemed to work so I believe the issue has to be electrical. I have checked all the drivers and Razer synapse for any updates but everything is up to date.

I am very aware the issue may be because of its age (10+ years) but I am just hoping there is some kind of way I can at least get the number keys to work again, so I can still keep using it for the time being. 

Many thanks in advance.
