Moisture problems with keyboard?

I have a NordicTrac C2200 from around 2002. It has always worked well for the limited use it has had. We decided to start using it more recently but it was very dusty. It was cleaned thoroughly with cleaners on the outside (maybe too much) and now does not work. Lights come on the console but pressing the start and incline and speed buttons beep but nothing happens. Took the console apart and cleaned the inside dust and cleaned and checked connectors. Still does not work. Watched a nice youtube video where it was due to moisture getting into the keypad. I peeled off the keypad and there is black where the main connector comes into the keypad. Is this due to moisture and could this be the problem? Can I just clean this wih contact cleaner? I was trying to post some pictures but they would not paste.

    Try using contact cleaner and see if that helps. Do you have the complete model number its located on a sticker down on the frame close to the floor when you fold unit up. Also you can look under the hood cover and there is a piece of paper inside a envelope that has the model number on the paper.

    Cleaned the console and board connections. I sent several pictures to admin. Put it back together. Now incline and speed work as well as fans and pulse but the start and stop buttons do not functions. They don't even beep. I thought maybe it was the ribbon connector for the start/stop buttons but cleaned that and inserted it back in and nothing. Any suggestions?
