My T30 came back to me as my friend was unable to pay the amount I asked for the machine.
Anyways, typing on it right now, the 4 and A keys are hard to be typed on the screen: I need to press very hard the 4 key so that the number gets typed on the screen. the A key is very similar.
I was wondering if there's a possibility to revive those keys without having to buy a need keyboard.
Also, if this is not possible, I'm offering a used Thai keyboard for a T4x series laptop in exchange for a T30 keyboard.

I'd say pop the keycap off and see if there is something underneath it that is keeping the key from being pressed down.

It kinda worked. After 5 years of continuous use is normal the keys start having this behaviour.
