My Keyboard is goosed!

Yep My A1200 keyboard has gone tits up Ctrl+A+A doesn't work AND it prints "*******" characters (seemingly at random in any KeyBoard input).

So.....

What are my options?

Thanks for reading

As a last resort you can try cutting a thin strip off of the end of the membrane connector.

As stated, check to make sure the cable is seated all the way and locked down. If that doesn't work, and you're sure it's not the ribbon cable connector on the motherboard itself, a new keyboard can be had here:
