The right ➡️ arrow key on our son’s MBA came lose and doesn’t work. I checked and the little dome under it does register the movement so I ordered the new keycap and spring thingy. Here’s hoping that fixes it. Else a new keyboard would be required which is over $400.

@ronguest $400! I think I’m going to consider Apple Care on my next Mac.

@odd Apple’s self repair price for this keyboard is about $300. But their repair manual says you need to buy some trackpad parts too. A local indie repair shop quoted a bit over $400.

@ronguest A lot of money. The extra $100 for the job is probably worth it though.
