Replacing Keyboad Keys- mid-2014 MBP

[Redsfan]

As per the theard title, the "r" and "g" on our mid-2014 MBP are not wokring properly. I literally have to pound the "g" pretty hard and the "r" isn't much better. Can these keys be replaced without having to replace the keyboard?

There is no way to fix or replace individual keys on this MacBook.

My 11in MBA has a key that's detached from the suction cup and the suction cup is detached from the keyboard itself. Do you readers have advice for reattaching these pieces? Thanks!

Try 95% spirit/alcohol: turn off your laptop, put a few drops of liquid under the key (all sides, you can't harm electronics with 95% alcohol) and work it for a bit. I managed to 100% fix iPhone 4 Home button this way recently (my trusty iPhone is daily driven since August of 2010, 12+ years, all original including battery).

only issue is I would have to pry the key up to get alcohol under it, and afraid I will mess somethin up, lol. It is odd because if I hold either key down, it will work so maybe somebody at a service centre can do somethin. Silly to have to replace the entire keyboard on this old of a Mac, even though it still works well

That is what I have been told, not sure what kind of video I saw then, lol
