Geek With Social Skills | PET 2001 Keyboard Repair and RAM/ROM Upgrades - Commodore CBM @geekwithsocialskills | Uploaded February 2020 | Updated October 2024, 3 hours ago.
In this video I repair my 1978 Commodore PET model 2001-16 N computer keyboard as it had some sticking keys and a few of them didn't even work 100% or needed to be pressed multiple times to register a key press.

I also upgraded the RAM from 16 KB to 32 KB and upgraded the stock BASIC 2.0 ROM to version 4.0 using the Commodore PET ROM/RAM kit from TFW8b.com
