I sell the EL-2364 Flash ROM on sellmyretro.com - and can get SirMorris to program it for you - if you clarify exactly which ROM version you need! https://www.sellmyretro.com/offer/details/rom-el-_2364-flash-eprom-chips-%28replacemen...

Where the keys are not fully working, this can be the ULA, the membrane, or the molex sockets (as a start). It could be a faulty membrane, but the first thing to check is the molex sockets. Did you leave any bits of the old membrane inside? If not, try using a wire to connect each pin in the 5 way c...
