Once you have removed the covers you will see two screws (one on each cover). Using a PH0 screw driver, loosen the screws (they are attached so will not come out).

Once the screws are loose, you can push the keyboard up to release the tabs holding it on on the bottom. I use a spudger to assist with this.

Once the tabs are released, you can carefully pull the keyboard down and flip it towards you. Exposing the two cables connecting it to the motherboard.

Thank you. It is for the P52 model. I don’t know if the P52s is the same as the P52 as far as replacing the keyboard but when I was making the article it auto-populated the P52s and I didn’t change it back. I have made the appropriate change.
