    You may have had the experience of accidentally knocking over the water glass on the table while playing a game, and then the water spilled into the keyboard, and then many of the keys on the keyboard became unusable. Does this mean that the keyboard cannot be used?

    That's not the case at all, we just need to do it simply, and the keyboard will be back to normal. Next, the author will talk about how to deal with this situation based on his own experience. Once a friend accidentally spilled yogurt on the keyboard when playing a game, the keyboard keys failed, but not all the keys could not be used, and some of the keys were not displayed properly when clicking.

    It appears that the keys are malfunctioning due to liquid entering the keyboard. If the keyboard is still under warranty, it is completely possible to send it to a repair center for processing. But at that time, my friend's keyboard was out of warranty, and it was expensive to send it for repair.

    There is no way to repair it only by yourself (it is recommended that the keyboard within the warranty period should not be repaired by yourself to prevent normal warranty), who made us "diyer"! After turning off the computer, I pried off the keycaps and carefully wiped the liquid in the keyboard, and found that the keyboard still could not be used normally, and it seemed that the circuit board of the keyboard had been flooded. I had no choice but to open the base of the keyboard.

    It is recommended to be careful with this step, because many keyboards are designed with "hidden buckles" and are easy to break. If you accidentally break it, the keyboard will never be as tight as it used to be. The author accidentally broke the "hidden button" of his keyboard before, everyone must be careful!

    My friend is using Logitech.

    It's easy to use, fortunately, there is no hidden buckle design, carefully open the keyboard base, and you can see the circuit board of the keyboard. The author found that there were indeed traces of "yogurt" on the circuit board of the keyboard, so I carefully wiped it with absorbent cotton with strong water absorption. Here is a reminder that the circuit board of the keyboard is a thin plastic sheet with two to three layers, which must be carefully wiped, and not touched with hard things, otherwise the circuit will be damaged.

    After wiping carefully, reinstall the keyboard and connect it to the computer, this time it should solve the problem! But I didn't expect the problem to be the same! It seems that the circuit board is still wet, and the short circuit has caused the keyboard to not work properly, and there is no way to disassemble the keyboard again.

    This time the author learned a lesson, wiped the three layers of circuit boards separately, and wiped them in sunlight later.

    Dried for 3 hours! This time the problem was finally solved! Summary:

    Although the problem is small this time and has not caused any loss, it reminds everyone to pay attention to waterproof and moisture-proof. Whether it's a keyboard and mouse, or a monitor host, you should pay attention. For the keyboard within the warranty period, the author does not recommend such maintenance, it is best to send the keyboard to the maintenance department.

    Of course, there are many waterproof keyboards on the market, and it is recommended that friends who are "hairy" choose this kind of product. If water accidentally enters, be sure to disassemble it carefully and dry it before installing and using.

    Hello, you can use warm water to wipe it, but the best way is to change it, which is usually about a few dozen pieces.

    Soaking in water is completely wasted.

    You check with a towel.

    If it's still sticky, it's better to change it.

    If the laptop keyboard gets sugar water, you need to take measures to clean it as soon as possible to prevent the sugar from seeping into the inside of the keyboard sensitive socks, causing the keyboard to not work properly. Here are some steps that may apply:1

    Power off immediately: If sugar water or other liquid is accidentally poured on the keyboard while using the laptop, the power should be turned off immediately, the battery should be unplugged, and the power adapter should be unplugged. This reduces the extent of damage to your computer.

    2.Pour out the excess sugar water: First, flip the computer up and down so that the excess sugar water is poured out.

    You can also use a straw to suck out the excess sugar water. 3.Wipe with a dry towel:

    Soak up as much sugar as you can with a towel, but don't rub it too hard to avoid soaking sugar into the keyboard. If necessary, remove the keycaps from your keyboard and gently wipe them with a small brush. 4.

    Use a hair dryer: Use a hair dryer to dry the water in the keyboard, this will help remove sugar quickly. Be careful not to use the high temperature mode, which may burn out parts of the computer.

    Use a hair dryer to blow away all moisture, but don't turn it on right away. It is best to place the computer in a ventilated and dry place to allow the moisture inside the keyboard to evaporate naturally, and it is recommended to wait at least 6-8 hours to ensure that the inside of the keyboard is completely dry before turning it back on. If none of these methods work, or if some keys on the keyboard still don't work, you may need to replace the keyboard or need further bridge fluid repairs.

    Hello dear, I'm glad to answer for you. If the laptop keyboard gets sugar water, it will cause problems such as the keyboard malfunctioning or the keys sticking and not rebounding. Here are some possible workarounds:

    1.Immediate power outage: Turn off the power immediately, unplug the battery and power cord to avoid more serious damage due to short circuits and other reasons.

    2.Clean the physical parts: Wipe the moisture off the surface with absorbent paper or a dry cloth, and clean the keys with an alcohol swab or 95% ethanol with a high concentration in the keys above the keyboard.

    Do not use detergents or chlorine that contain acids or alkaline gases, etc., as this may cause further damage to the keyboard. 3.Check and correct the keyboard:

    If the keyboard is still not working, you need to open the laptop, check the connection of the power strip under the keyboard, and adjust the assembly of the keyboard appropriately to ensure that the keyboard can be properly installed on the motherboard. 4.Replace the keyboard:

    If none of the above methods solve the problem, then the last solution is to buy a keyboard of the same model and install it on your laptop. It should be noted that if you do not have the experience or professional skills of the Zoenno Attendant, it is best to consult a professional maintenance personnel to replace the keyboard. It should be noted that it is best to stay away from food or drinks when using the laptop on a daily basis to avoid unnecessary damage.

    1. Turn the computer keyboard upside down in the first time to avoid catastrophic consequences caused by water flowing into the motherboard. Then unplug the power supply and force the battery to shut down (it is not enough to simply press the power switch to force the shutdown, because the main battery may still be short-circuited, so be sure to remove the battery and disconnect the power adapter).

    2. Use a dry cloth to absorb the water on the surface of the keyboard, remove the keyboard and wipe the water on the back (if you can't remove it, don't force it to unload, so as not to pry the key bracket in the keyboard), and then slowly dry it or use a hair dryer to dry it (don't expose it to the scorching sun or blow it with hot air, it will accelerate the aging or deformation of internal parts), and at the same time, it is best to blow it with cold air inside the computer host, so as not to cause a short circuit due to moisture when the laptop is turned on (try to blow it for a while or put it in a ventilated place for a longer period of time, Turn on the computer after the inside of the computer is dry).

    3. After the water is dry, if you find that some keys are out of order or serial keys (E when you hit D, 2 when you press 1, etc.), please check whether the water on the keyboard has dried up again, or disassemble and check the position of the keyboard wiring.
