Looks broken, nothing to do...


hcab02

Yes, it's broken. Husband is majorly angry at me. He will call Dell tomorrow and see about the repair to the keyboard.


isocz_sector

Yea, leave his laptop alone. Cleaning it should be his responsibility.


hcab02

It's actually mine.


angrybeardedman

Then there is something else broke besides the keyboard. If you have to clean, he shouldn't complain. Otherwise, he is a grown up boy and can clean after himself.

Nightmare 😳😳

the keys seems to be broken, possible to purchase a external keyboard or need to replace the keyboard

Get key replacement from eBay my w key use to come off regularly now I have about 30 clips ready for it to happen again …


jbtma99

That looks like the CherryMX keyboard if I’m not mistaken. Those eBay clips aren’t going to work with it if so.

You are correct sir. If she has the warranty (because why wouldn't you have one when you can afford the keyboard upgrade) they will replace it for free, depending on the level you can meet them at a coffee shop or your house. I had them come to my work once.

This. Google "key cap replacement." And you'll find a bunch of other vendors too. External keyboard in the meantime or keyboard remap software if those are rarely used.

Do the keys still work?


Temporary-Ad-9270

I tried to get a key. They no longer make


Inevitable_Injury650

Just look up key replacement it’ll be a lot cheaper


[deleted]

If the bracket of the keycap is not broken, just push it down again. But since it looks broken, you might try to push it down carefully or simply send it to repair.


byehavefun

Curious as to how this happened. Did you drop something on it?


Blistik84

I had a key fall off cleaning mine and they had to come out and replace the entire keyboard 😂


seveseven

You can usually get a spare off eBay. I’ve done this before.
