What are you doing with the head cleaner? Just spraying it in between the
keys?
What I have done with many commodore keyboards is to open them up (don't
lose the tiny screws) and clean the black rubber on each key with a q-tip
and isopropyl alcohol. I also clean the contacts on the circuit board.
Then put it back together, and it should work. I did this many times with
my original VIC-20 and with various PETs.

I picked up a Commodore Pet for old times sake (it was
the first desktop
computer I ever got my hands on). Unfortunately a couple of keys are not
responding consistantly. I suspect that some goop got spilled on it at
some point (it was a board of education computer originally). I tried
some head cleaner which has worked for me before but not this time.
Anyone with experience with this with advice?
TIA
