​@@alphaboardrepair5285 the product is no longer available

That’s because you likely forced them and broke the clips. You have to be very careful doing this. These keys only come off one way as they are designed.

@@alphaboardrepair5285 I didn't force anything. I popped them off gently just like the video.

@@dustinrossg what model M1 MacBook do you have? I as well as many others have done this with no issues. Are you 100% certain you installed the scissor mechanism in the proper orientation? If you have a newer M1 Mac (newer than the A2337) this process may not work. I have not tested key removal on newer macs.

If the key will no longer snap all the way back down and stays kicked up, then the clips are broken on the key itself (black plastic part). It will need to be replaced but luckily those are very cheap to buy. It’s still possible no matter how careful you are to break a key clip, they are just so tiny and delicate. No matter what they only come off one way, so don’t feel too bad if one breaks.

I haven’t had a m2 air in for sticky key repair yet, but I would assume they are similar.

It’s just copper wire, non coated.

What's the history? any liquid damage? Before applying any sort of power i would open the back case and have a look to see if there are any signs of liquid damage. If you find evidence of liquid damage (stains on the bottom cover, shiny stains on the battery, or corrosion on the board, You really need to take the logic board completely out of the laptop, and have an inline USB-C voltmeter/ammeter to see what the board is drawing after a visual inspection. If you only have 5V on the meter, check to make sure the device isn't in DFU mode or recovery mode. If its not in DFU/recovery (and you have a lock symbol in apple configurator), check for any shorts to ground on the main power rails. At this point you get into checking the power on sequence. Thermal imaging is your friend in finding pesky shorts on rails that power many IC's. If you don't suspect any sort of liquid damage, or see any visually, use an inline multimeter to see what its doing, and check to make sure the battery is not 100% dead. Some computers will not boot if the battery is completely dead.

@@alphaboardrepair5285 It is brand new. No one used it before. It was sitting on the shelf for 3 years. The battery shows 0 volts.

No, it will not happen again. I replaced the screen with a different manufacturer, which permanently fixes the issue. The screen installed is LG from a Pro 5.

Samsung is trash and should've been sued. And I only use Samsung products 🤦🏼‍♂️

You are most welcome!

it happened with backspase and some regular keys like control fn option

@@verletzt546 make sure to align the metal bars correctly and do not force anything. If you break the small plastic snaps on the plastic black key itself, it will have to be replaced. Once the snap breaks it will no longer stay attached. Look very carefully and see if anything is broken on the key itself. Also make sure you have the white scissor mechanism installed correctly and not upside down. It will only go in one way.

@@alphaboardrepair5285 So I did the same with a normal key but the hinge/mechanisme broke off because I put a lot of force in it. Do you know where I could find the hinge online? Maybe a website were I can order it?

@@nizarmounib9104 the white scissoring plastic part?

@@alphaboardrepair5285 Yes exactly that part

Thank you!!!

I charge a $40 diagnosing fee to see what the issue is. The total cost varies depending on the problem and level of damage. Expect anywhere from $130-$200 if it is repairable. Price range includes shipping back to you and the diagnosing fee. Check out www.alphaboardrepair.com for more details.

@@alphaboardrepair5285 sounds good! how can we start the process?

Yeah, ultimately it was the shorted capacitor that caused a short on ppbus. But the usb c connectors definitely played a role.

I use low temp solder, so around 160C

Yes but the corrosion can be caused by many environmental aspects, so it may not be located at this particular spot.

Btw great repair tho...you are following the schematics and testing everything the way it should be

Well, I thought I would need to, but after I cleaned the areas of the corrosion the resistor that was reading incorrectly and causing no backlight was reading on spec again. I need to get an on screen meter so everyone can see that. Sometimes corrosion bridges components and that is all that the issue is. I didn’t have that particular resistor on hand either or else I would have just replaced it any ways. All other resistors read to specification according to the schematics.

Something is bound up in the key. Remove it and try again. Make sure you didn’t install the hinge upside down.

I have the very same problem, dismounted it several times. It only clicks flat. I can´t get it to fit propperly again

@@boomcloser9013 when you disassemble, you must very carefully pay attention to how the components are oriented. If you install them incorrectly you will have these symptoms.

Thanks for sharing! You do know there is a skip feature right? It’s a 40 min video because there’s a lot to taking these keys apart, and different keys have different ways to come apart. If you want to see how certain keys come apart then skip around until you find it.

@Delusional K skip to 36:27 for the space key. But essentially yes, it has the metal bars but there’s many more clips.

Thanks for the tutorial! (Just had a sticky shift key and managed to fix it with IPA and an ifixit kit). Shift key back to happy self!

Yeah, I recorded with a go pro hero 8, unfortunately it's not good for close-ups. I need to purchase a better camera for these purposes.

HEy, are you from Nepal? do you know any place that does this and repairs the keyboard in Ktm?

@@romankarki8775 hey bro no I’m from Delhi, India. Actually I tried this and it helped a little but the stickiness came back in a day. So I sent it for servicing to the apple care and it fixed it at a nominal service charge

@@ramanbhandari thank you.

No problem, just go slow and you will be fine. In the event you break a key, they do sell replacements online!
