Hi friends,

I am having Toshiba Satellite laptop with me yesterday i was working late night and by mistake a cup of coffee fell on my keyboard and i guess there would be some issues or it might happen that there would be some water because of which i am not able to use some of the keys. I think if i can remove the keyboard and might be able to fix this issue.

It's very simple you can if you want to do it then you can do it by yourself but be careful , there would be one remove able trim strip make sure you remove it very carefully and by paying attention. Once you have removed that just lift the keyword and thats it. Normally keyboard connects to the laptop with a cable thats goes into a ZIF socket.
