Tips for repairing?]]> So the bottom row of my laptop's keyboard is completely unresponsive. Actually the spacebar still works but I have to press really hard and press it multiple times. I have no idea why it's not working because there hasn't been any liquid damage. I thought the battery was bad (and it was, like only 60% battery health) so I replaced it. But the issue still hasn't been fixed. I'm fine with using an external keyboard, but I'd still like some tips/guide on replacing my keyboard. I saw on YouTube that they were soldering it in and I really hope I don't need to solder it.

Thank you!!

If you push on the righ part of the case of the laptop, you can cause a short and immediate black screen shutdown. The laptop still works amazing for CPU only tasks and even mild gaming, the battery life obviosuly improved with no GPU😂

I've been living with this for around 6 months and now I'm becoming interested in troubleshoot the MOBO and soldering if needed to fix my laptop! any reccomendations?
