Did you have a liquid spill at one point? Or do you wipe down your system spraying a cleaner on it and then wiping it down? If either are true you likely have gotten liquid into the trackpad and keyboard causing corrosion.

The other possibility here is the battery has swollen up pressing on the uppercase. Then its time for a new battery.

Well your battery is at its limit with 1000 cycles!

[https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT2015|Determine battery cycle count for Mac notebooks] There you see the expected life is 1000 cycles.

So I would start there replace your battery. Here's the IFIXIT guide you'll need to follow: [guide|27832] and here's the needed part: [product|IF123-053-5]. Depending on where you live you may need to find another source as shipping LiOn batteries needs to be by ground.

I should point out, in approximately 4 years you've cycled your battery around 20 times per month which is on the high side.

You may want to review how you use your system. Letting the battery to discharge below 10% this often is not good as this is when gases can build up within the battery and doing this often does cause the battery to breakdown. Try to keep the system plugged in as long as you can and try not to let it run down that far if you can.

=== Update (05/19/2018) ===

Did you order a new battery yet? As I stated you need to focus on what is clearly at the end of its life. Your battery can have one or two bad cells which can mess-up the lower voltage tap which some parts use.

I would not put your system into a refrigerator. Chilling the system won't alter the battery when its just running out of gas. It would only help decompressing the gas built up in the battery if it was swelled up.

Lets try a different tack here. I'm wondering if one of the thermal sensors is messing you up. Download the great app: [https://www.tunabellysoftware.com/tgpro/|TG Pro].
