How to Replace Keys on a Keyboard

Step 1 Individual Keys

• Loosen the key by prying all four corners gently with your spudger.

• Make sure your keyboard is unplugged before performing any of these steps.

Step 2

• Wedge the tip of the spudger under the bottom of the key and carefully lift up until the key pops loose.

• If the key will not come out, or seems like too much force is needed, try step one again.

Step 3

• Use tweezers to remove any contaminants that were preventing the key from being pressed down from the now open hole on your keyboard.

• Do not to grab the actual button, as breaking that could damage your keyboard permanently.

Step 4

• Clean your keys with compressed air by blowing around the removed key.

Step 5

• Push in the clean keys until you hear a popping sound.

• The keys should click in easily, so if you are having trouble try realigning the key with its hole.

• If you removed multiple keys, make sure they are in their proper spot and orientation.
