Squeaky rt. hand B key

Hello,

I'm a high school music teacher (and clarinet player) hoping to save money on instrument repairs. I was just handed a problem I've never encountered before.

The clarinet plays fine in the left hand, but once the left hand B/C# keys (or rt. hand) are pressed, the instrument stops speaking and becomes unstable and unable to play anything. There is a squeaky/rubbing sound when those keys are depressed. No rubbing is visible, and the instrument doesn't look like it's been twisted.

The student has an exam coming up very quickly, so I'm hoping to solve this one soon!

Help! (?)

Melissa
