Everything points to the keyboard at this point, so borrow someone's known-good keyboard to test the theory, and you may have this solved.
As far as connectors being tight, make certain that it's the right connector. It's not that hard to mix them up (done it myself a few times). That being said, ALL my connectors are so tight that I fear breaking something if I ever have to remove them. I use a light application of dielectric grease to make it less of a chore, and even with that, sometimes they are a pain in the ass to work with.
