Some time ago we dropped a dell type keyboard onto our wooden floor which caused the spacebar to jump off. It fits back quite easily however it sticks when pushed. No amount of refitting has helped.
It has the ref cn-oj4623-37172-4an-004v on it's bottom.
The board is the type that has a centre connection and two others, one at each side on t eh underside of the bar.
It is not the type that has metal bars that swing around below to be reseated. It does have a floating plastic frame underneath but this is reasonably fixed and has only a little play.
I have refitted the space bar several times thinking I may not have seated it correctly all to no avail.
Can you assist.
Just solved it, after a bit of tinkering...
the prongs of the floating plastic frame need to sit inside the clips of the spacebar key, you can't just clip it back on with the prongs either up or down. It's fiddly, you need a paperclip or thin screwdriver to do it, but it's stopped the sticking problem.
I was having the same problem with my Dell Keyboard. I finally realized that the plastic "bar" that is attached to the underside of the spacebar needs to be removed from the spacebar, set on the keyboard, with the two top tabs under the "hooks" of the keyboard frame, then snap the spacebar key on top, pushing it to snap into the keyboard frame and into the bar.
