Introduction

This replacement can help if some keys are sticking or not working at all, as well as let you see if there is any debris under the keyboard that may need to be cleared out. This also helps if you need to replace any keys, as it would be best to do so when the keyboard is not attached to the laptop.

BE CAREFUL as the keyboard is delicate and must be lifted out carefully to avoid any damage.
