[QUOTE="DocW, post: 1506838, member: 184247"] Hi I got a macbook pro from around 2010 - 2011 I got some issues whit my keyboard and mouse. I spilled some water over it, but it wasn't much and I dried it straight away. But then I tried entering my password and it didn't work. So I hooked a usb keyboard on that did work. But still got a lot of issues. Symptom list: - Keyboard doesn't work or the letters are switched or something (hearing the 'error' sound but not seeing a letter apear) this is after logging in (tried it on some word files and webbrowsers same problem everywere). Some of the 'f' keys do work like brighness and keyboard light. - My 'left mouse' turned into a right mouse, when I hooked a usb mouse on, I got the same problem. (and the right mouse is still the right mouse). - My capslocklight keeps buring when the power is hooked on, even when the cpu is off. - Capslock light is on when the capslock doesn't work, and is off when it does. I restarted the cpu a couple of times but no change there... Later I dried it with a fohn and I got some improvements after that (some letter started to work again and then they didn't and the they did etc.) Is there any way I can fix this, wihtout going to the store and get some expensive repair, cause I got the feeling that is not necessary since it was only a little water (just water no coke or anything). I spilled it on the Tab, Caps, q, a, maybe also the a, s, § and 1, but not more than that. Please help! Yours sincerely, Kevin (DocW) [/QUOTE]
