I’ve got a relatively early Model01 with one of the short cables that’s slightly too long, and because it’s jammed into the space between the two halves (I keep them connected), the right half has occasionally lost contact with the left. It definitely sounds like the two halves aren’t communicating properly in your case, but the right half is clearly getting power. Re-seating the connection has always worked for me, but since you’ve tried that, you might take a look at the RJ45 jacks on both halves and see if any of the contacts are bent.
Did you end up soldering anything? It sounds like you’ve ended up causing a short-circuit somewhere on the right hand side. It’s worth opening up the keyboard and looking inside to see if you can see anything that might be causing the short.
Hm. The description suggests that it’s a short between the LED network and the keyswitch network, which would be some bit of metal touching two points that shouldn’t be connected. I could see this potentially happening when opening up a switch and possibly jostling one of the pins, though don’t know for sure exactly what happened.
I don’t think it’s short circuit for now. Repairing it is beyond my skill. Definitely, I have voided my warranty. So, can I buy only another right side ? I really love it after switching to the linear switch.
