FAQ's
Q: My keyboard is not working enough to follow these steps. What can I do?
A: If your keyboard is not working enough to follow these steps, then try using an external keyboard. They will usually plug into a USB port and should allow you to perform these troubleshooting steps. You can also try reseating the keyboard ribbon cable to see if that helps.
Q: My Key Cap will not click down in place correctly. Whats wrong?
A: If your Key Cap is not clicking down in place correctly, it is most likely due to the Retainer Clip not being properly installed or damaged. Remove the Cap and inspect for damage or that its not laying down flush and properly snapped in itself. Compare to another Clip if needed by removing another Cap.
Q: The Retainer Clip / Hinge Clip is not staying down on the Keyboard.
A: The retainer clip should be attaching to both the key cap and to the keyboard. If its not attaching to the keyboard correctly its because the keyboard pins are bent out of place, the retainer clip is damaged, or the retainer clip is not orientated correctly. If you cant figure it out by just looking at the clip with is hard to do sometimes, remove another key cap and compare the correctly installed retainer clip to yours.
Q: The Hinge Clips came off with the Key Cap. What do I do?
A: Because they key can usually not be reinstalled with the Retainer Clip and the Key Cap still attached to each other, you would have to separate them as seen here, using a small flat pry tool.
Q: Where can I purchase replacement keys?
A: If any component of the key assembly is broken, it would have to be replaced. I usually get my keys on Ebay or www.replacementlaptopkeys.com. If you cannot find a loose key for sale, you may have to purchase a keyboard and take a key from there.
Q: I have a Key or Keys that are not working. Will this fix them?
A: This video is a tutorial on how to replace a key. If your keys are not working but are not mechanically broken, troubleshoot them as seen here; • How To Fix Troubleshoo... .
Q: The hinge clip came apart into two pieces. How can I reassemble?
A: They fit together with a small plastic pin on the left and right of the inner clip. These fit into holes on the outer clip. To see exactly how the inner clip sits in the outer clip, remove another key cap and copy the clip under it.
Q: The rubber spring came off. How do I reattach it?
A: There isn't really a good way to reattach those. They are not meant to be replaced. Best advice is try to use a small amount of glue. If that does not work, you may have to replace the keyboard.

- A keybind on a program was binded to a key.

    To anyone having keyboard issues, just don't give up! A big thanks to PC Monkey. Device Manager did not show up on my version. After a lot of frustration, because my keyboard didn't work, I finally found a random document and cut and pasted the letters to spell DEVICE using my right click menu. Pasting it into the search section, it finally found me the device manager. As suggested, I uninstalled the keyboard then restarted. However, it still didn't work even though the driver had automatically reinstalled. This led me to the comments section, where I saw that others had needed do go through some process twice. So, ever hopeful, I manually reinstalled the driver irrespective of the pre-installation then restarted my computer yet again. After this attempt, it worked! I can now use my keyboard again. Never give up!

    Hey man, appreciate the video. Checked for updates and restarted the computer as the update instructed. Had the BIOS screen pop up on restart then shut down. Second restart went as normal and the key started to work. Not sure how it happened but I wont argue with the results. Video kept me calm and from breaking anything by trying to rip out the key haphazardly.

    Hey, great video! I'm just having a bit of trouble with 2 of my keys on my laptop (q and 8 keys). I'm not too sure whether its a hardware or a software problem but I'm leaning towards hardware since I've already updated all my drivers. I'm finding it difficult to find information on my issue since it seems to be a unique case - my q and 8 keys only work if I am holding down another key. For example, if I press spacebar whilst pressing q it will work, but it won't work when I try to press it on its own. Any suggestions or should I just take it into the computer shop? Thanks for the help! :)

    I had issues on my keyboard after replacing my battery with a new one. I was able to update the bios on my HP pavilion but whenever I boot up my note book I receive beeping sound for 60 seconds. The funny thing is that it started doing ghost/phantom typing. I was wondering if it has to do with the wiring on the motherboard as the battery is placed above several ribbons?

    Great video - unfortunately after running updates and removing/reinstalling keyboard driver - the Z 4 $ keys on my LG Gram laptop are intermittent and th E is often intermittent, delayed or double displays (causing misspellings). After verifying it wasn't gunk under the keys (I removed them) I took it to Micro-center with a replacement keyboard I bought on Amaon but they said I need one that was already attached to the top/keyboard deck so it would be $500 to replace it (350 parts / 150 labor) and that may not be the issue. They said it could be the OS or the motherboard. Such a pain to use th on-screen keyboard or a USB keyboard. QUESTION> I'm now considering remaping the problem keys to the [ ] \ keys that I nevre used - but am not sure that's possible. Any thougts/suggstions?

    My keyboard was functioning well until it upgraded to windows 11. My laptop is lenovo IdeaPad slim 3. I haven't used it for almost five days since we had a short break from an online class. I was shocked when I opened it, some keys weren't functioning. My keyboard doesn't feel mechanically broken though, it goes smoothly once pressed. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to type the letter c, v, m, h, enter, z, and x. I haven't tried the last method because I was afraid of causing additional trouble. What should I do? Do I really need to replace my keyboard? My laptop is only 1 year old. I purchased it last year, huhu.

I’ve removed the key and cleaned with alcohol. I’m worried the problem is at the contact, under the rubber “spring.” Could I remove this without too much trouble to reassemble? Thanks in advance!

  • @PC_Monkey

    No, most likely removing the rubber spring is not needed and those are not designed to be removed and reinstalled anyway. If reseating the keyboard ribbon cable at both ends does not help, then you most likely need to replace the keyboard.
