Emma Posted October 9, 2014 Report Share Posted October 9, 2014 So I got fed up with my F key flying off repeatedly and ordered a new clip for the back of it. Now i'm looking at it and not got a clue how to attach it on there! lol. pics to follow.......... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emma Posted October 9, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2014 Omg! How much dust is inside it?! You can't really see it when you're looking at it! Edit: oh dear! I took the old clip off and tried to put the new one on....it wouldn't fit. So I tried to put the old one back on....it wouldn't clip back in to position! Have now even managed to mess up the D key too! (Took it off to compare how the clips should be aligned and couldn't get the key to slot back in properly afterwards!). This is turning into an ordeal!

qweasd Posted October 9, 2014 Report Share Posted October 9, 2014 You will need to fit the 2 bits on the left of the new clip together to make an X shape. Then it is really tricky. When I broke a key recently, I fitted the X shape into the back of the key and then used the screwdrivers out of a cracker to fit the other ends of the X onto the keyboard. I don't know if you need the third bit of the new clip as the original bit looks like it is still fixed onto the computer. (Edit: I was lucky that the key I was fitting was at the edge of the keyboard - yours will be harder) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emma Posted October 9, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2014 Thanks. Yeah the problem I had was basically i've got the wrong replacement part. Oh and even my husband has struggled to get the orgional fitting back on again. The f key is currently raised and at an angle, looks more like a diamond shape than a square, lol. And let us not even mention the D key, which was perfectly fine until I took it off.......now it is sunken down at the top an lifting up at the bottom. In summary: I've proper messed it up!

qweasd Posted October 9, 2014 Report Share Posted October 9, 2014 My end key is still not flush with the other keys but at least it doesn't fall off anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emma Posted October 9, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2014 Mine looks like it's been attacked by a 2 year old with a sledgehammer. I'm not taking a pic to show anyone coz I'm too embarrassed, lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guinnessman Posted October 14, 2014 Report Share Posted October 14, 2014 If you are still not sorted, PM me make and model, I may well have a spare keyboard in stock that you can have. Looks like a HP 620 series at a glance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emma Posted October 14, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 14, 2014 Maybe stop typing all those F words LOL You are so right! A combination of too much booze which probably led to a bit of profanity and oops, no more F Key. [emoji79] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NOBELHOWLUC49 Posted October 14, 2014 Report Share Posted October 14, 2014 Have you actually managed to fix this yet???? Just worried in case you start over using other keys.... I won't list the keys that might be over used as there maybe kids using this site. Responsible adult.... ...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emma Posted October 14, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 14, 2014 Well I've made it worse if that counts. Now the f key is hanging on by a thread and the d key is permanently depressed, lol. This really isn't my forte, lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guinnessman Posted October 14, 2014 Report Share Posted October 14, 2014 Sorry, I have 35 broken HP laptops, but nothing that fit yours. Nearly but not quite. When I haven't had what I need, I have used http://www.onlinelaptopbatteries.co.uk/Hp_G62_-_A_Series/cat1222108_1295813.aspx They are about £15 and easy to fit. Search YouTube for how to fit.
