FAQ's:
Q: My Key Cap will not click down in place correctly. Whats 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 are broken, you may have to replace them. 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; youtu.be/wqrchfpdJ_w.

Q: The hinge clip came apart into two pieces. How can I reassemble?
A: Unfortunately they do come apart sometimes :( You can see how to put them back together in the last half of this video: youtube.com/watch?v=vVA-nSROSKk

Q: The rubber spring came off. How do I reattach it?
A: There isnt really a good way to reattach the Rubber Springs. 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 Hinge 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.
