Apple wireless keyboard Why is my keyboard not turning on with new batteries

Wireless Bluetooth keyboard won’t turn on. I have a wireless Apple keyboard (about 7-8 years old)(If it means anything: Model A1314) that will not turn on. When I press the power button the green LED lights up for about 3 seconds then goes out. It does not flash as though trying to make a connection to MacBook. During that 3 seconds the Bluetooth window detects the keyboard but pushing the "connect" doesn't work as it powers off too quickly. I put fresh batteries in and still get the same results. The battery terminals are clean. No corrosion ever. I just migrated from a 2015 Intel Mac to a 2023 M-2 MacBook Pro. Keyboard worked fine on Intel Mac. Please, any suggestions? Thank you.

Apple wireless keyboard won’t stay on When I press the on/off button at the end of the battery compartment, the green light comes on for a few seconds and goes off. The keyboard connects to my IMac for a few seconds, but then I lose connection. When I press the caplock key the light will not come on indicating the key board is not on. Problem seems to be the keyboard is not staying on. I have put new batteries in the keyboard. Why will the keyboard not stay on? How can I fix this?
