I plugged in the //c and tried the keyboard again. The right arrow key worked for a few dozen characters, then stopped again. So it seemed likely that there was just some gunk in there that still needed to be cleaned out.
Took it back out to the garage and gave it a couple of more squirts, then worked the switch quite a bit. Let it set for a while, as I looked for an RCA cable.
No joy on the cable, but I took the //c back in and hooked it up to the TV. Right arrow key works fine.
Gotta savor the little victories.
