    Toshiba L500 not detecting internal keyboard

    I have a Toshiba l500 with LA-4981P motherboard, and the internal keyboard is not working. I already replaced the keyboard. Checking the schemathic all keyboard traces go to the super io. So i resolder all the chip legs but the keyboard still isn't working. If i use a usb keyboard Num lock and caps lock light are working fine. What can i do from here?

      Thanks for reply

      Both voltages on pin 34 and 4 are 3.27v
      No errors in bios post
      No options to disable keyboard in bios
      Later i found there are some caps involved in the keyboard circuit. Checked the caps for shorts. All OK.

        Now, while the laptop is off, check resistance on JKB1 pins with and without the internal keyboard to discover whether any pin is shorted.
