FAQ's:
Q: My Key Cap will not click down in place correctly. What's wrong?
A: If the key assembly is not installing correctly, its either due to a component being damaged and needing to be replaced or a component not being orientated correctly. I would disassemble the key as seen here in this video and inspect for damage. If there is no damage, install the key. If there is damage, replace the key. Would you like help locating a key? If so, what is the brand and model for your computer?
Q: Where can I purchase replacement keys?
A: If any components is too damaged or broken, you will have to replace it. 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.
Q: The retainer clip 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.

Thanks! Our cat removed a key from my girlfriend's laptop (yes, I'm serious) and I was sure the key was a goner. 😂
But miracles do happen and those thin plastics did not break. I managed to get it back, but had to do it top first for some reason. Still, this video was a life saver!

my F9 and F10 key fell off, when i push down the key, it wont snap
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.
Your my savior.

THANKS? THIS VIDEO IS SO USEFULL? IT AVOIDED ME TO BREAK MY KEYBOARDS. THANNKS
Happy to help :) Always here if needed !!
This was to complicated for me so I just used tape and everything is good now 😌✌️
maybe i should use this method
LMAO
😭
question, i think the retainer clip of one of my keycaps got separated into two pieces (one piece for the middle and the other for the sides), and i'm currently having trouble trying to put it back. is this thing broken or is it possible to make it work properly again? thanks!
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.
I'm trying that and I fucked up most of my keyboard
@@laikathestar174 Sorry to hear :( Keys can definitely be super frustrating. When I started computer repair, it was my least favorite thing and I broke dozens lol :(
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.
@@PC_Monkey I think those pins must break off pretty easily because they're completely missing from the middle piece on one of my keys. Guess I gotta order a replacement :(
THANK YOU SO MUCH YOU'VE SAVED MY LIFE

Thanks boy it helpes me
My rubber but is ripped off would I be able to put it back on with super glue or will that not work?
@@PC_Monkey I think I may put a little pit on the the tip of a screwdriver and kind of ‘draw’ a circle with the glue. I’ll let you know if it works
tysm, saved me from a lot of trouble :D
Thanks for the video but do u have any tips on how to fix the plastic inside? mine is in two and idk how to fix it.
Check out the FAQ's on my videos next time! Could help you get an answer faster :)
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.

i have no idea what way u put the things in and im just gana glue it down bc its the w key that i ripped out of place bc of a game and this vid is usefull thanks man
Happy to help :) Always here if needed !! If you forgot the orientation of the hinge clip, you can compare it to another one
@@PC_Monkey I have the 13 version of the one u did idk if theirs a difference
@@JudgefiregamingVlogs There is usually a difference in different models. Even in the same model sometimes keys can have different hinge clips. But they are all basically the same and can be removed and installed the same basic way
@@PC_Monkey oh ok thanks
Pretty sure I did things right but my w key won't lock in
Fixed it! Thanks for the help
Happy to help :) Always here if needed !!
Mine won’t either, when I touch it on a certain side it pops up on the opposite side
@@Coolcat16690 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.
Thanks man

Is the procedure also the same with acer aspire 5 and 7 with loose keys?
This would be the same way you remove and install keys on most laptops as they are all constructed basically the same :)
OH MY FUCKING GOD THE GUY WHO INVENTED THIS SYSTEM IS GOING STRAIGHT TO THE HELL
lol ya, keys are easily one of the most frustrating part of computers :(
@@PC_Monkey Turns out that the two little thingies that hold the central piece were broken so the key stays there but very loose
@@CharlieReds If any components is too damaged or broken, you will have to replace it. 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.
Thanks.
Your welcome !! Happy to help :)
I saw. a key pop up
Out ,when I opened in morning . I was very waried. Only you are video I saw. ....only. ...thanks from India. 🙏🙏
Thabks for the information, but I have a question. If I just want to clean the dirt that is under the key, does removing the key ruin it or can it be put back? I hope you can uderstand what I am saying, since my English is really bad.
If you remove it the correct way then you will not ruin it. But that is very difficult for most new users. They are very easy to break
Omgg tyy u very muchh .
Your welcome !! Happy to help :)
I broke the white plastic near the top, is there any replacement methods?
