+ | [* black] This is as far as you can easily disassemble the keyboard. To go further requires removing 12 screws and 35 plastic rivets. This is not recommended. |
[* black] To clean the keyboard of liquid, I suggest holding it over a sink with the touchpad side up, then spraying plenty of isopropyl alcohol from the back, avoiding the touch-pad area (you may wish to mask it off). Let dry completely before reassembling. | |
[* black] If keys still do not function after cleaning, then it is possible that traces on the key matrix have become corroded. This is not repairable, since the key matrix is a sealed unit. It consists of 3 layers of plastic that are sealed together. Unfortunately, it is not 100% sealed to prevent entry of liquids. |
