Common causes of Laptop keyboard problems

Treating the keyboard with care and preventing accidents can go a long way towards lengthening its life and avoiding laptop keyboard repair bills. The main problems laptop users experience are:

  • Crumbs and dirt – Over time dirt and crumbs can accumulate under the keyboard keys and prevent them from functioning properly. A gentle brushing with a tiny soft brush can often remove a lot of dirt but if keyboard problems persist, it may require attention from a laptop keyboard repair technician.
  • Liquid spillage – If you spill a drink on your laptop, you must turn it off immediately and remove as much of the liquid as you can using a dry cloth or paper towel. You should then bring the laptop in to Creative IT as soon as possible for attention as liquids will damage the keyboard membrane and the keyboard will have to be replaced. Never turn your laptop on until a qualified laptop keyboard repair technician has inspected the laptop and tells you it is safe to do so. Any liquid that is left inside the laptop could cause severe damage to the motherboard circuits.
  • Missing or fallen off keys - Keys that fall off can sometimes be put back in place if the fixings are not damaged. We also carry some spare keyboard parts for the most popular laptop models. If the fixings are damaged, the whole keyboard may need to be replaced.
