Amiga Problems/A2000 Keyboard

Question
Hi,
My A2000 keyboard is failing to respond period. the cap lock
blinks three times which as I discovered is an indication of
watchdog timer failure. Is there any remedy to this issue
short of getting a new keyboard.
thanks  

Answer
Hi Zee,

I don't know whether the watchdog timer is a replaceable component, but I think your best option is to find a replacement keyboard on either ebay.com, amigakit.com or softhut.com. I have personally heard from a coworker just how hard it is to find components that date back to the late 80s/early 90s.

I hope this helps!
