Ahh, the Apple Extended Keyboard II. Some argue it's the best keyboard ever made. I'm just here to tear it down. Some specs:
-
Model No. M0312 and M3501
-
Manufactured by Alps Electric or Mitsumi in Japan, Ireland, Mexico, or The United States
-
Plate-mount Alps cream dampened, Alps White, Alps Salmon, or Mitsumi White switches
-
Two Apple Desktop Bus (ADB) Ports
-
108-key (ANSI) and 109-key (ISO) layouts
-
PBT Keycaps (well, except for the spacebar)
-
-
-
-
Two plastic tabs hold the keyboard's PCB and switches in place.
-
Use your thumbs to carefully press the tabs backwards. Reach under with your forefingers to release the board from the clips.
-
Lift the entire PCB assembly up and away from the keyboard case.
-
Be sure to lift up and out, as there are five small sets of clips gripping the bottom.
-
-
-
Remove the spring bar from the foot.
-
Release three sets of clips from the foot by pressing outward while lifting up. The back will need to be bowed out in order to remove the larger bump used as a control switch in the center.
-
Lift the foot up and away from the case. It should easily separate into two parts.

Super helpful guide! I recently restored an old AEK2 that had a bad “C” key. With this guide, I was able to easily take it apart and found out that the key was oxidized and bad. Now that my keyboard has a new keyswitch, I can use it with my modern Macs.
Yes, you need to change three electrolytic capacitors on the PCB. Those are 1uF 50V caps, but you can use lower voltage ones (like 16V) as the voltage is just 5V.
You can also try plugging the keyboard for like an hour and if the LEDs go out and keyboard starts working, then it is certain that the caps are going out.
