Space button works bad

#1 Post by TimeCoder » Sun Nov 06, 2016 5:15 pm

Hi,
today I found the problem (on my T420): space button is not working if I press the right part of button. In case of pressing left or center - works fine. How I can fix it?

Remove the keyboard and blow out the debris and crud.

The metal bar in the space bar is not in the correct postion. Find a 'how to' video showing how to remove and reattach the space bar.
