How to unstick a= key from key board hp dv1000

Key switch is not good - just get a another key board.

Laptop keyboards are slightly inexpensive and very easy to replace. These are not built to repair. You can pill the cover around the power button off, then you will see the keyboard assembly attached with 4 small screws, remove them. Push the keyboard forward slightly and it will pop out. Presto!

Hi,

I would like to know whether it is HP branded part no. that you have changed. Because if it is HP keyboard then you can replace it with HP.

If not then I need the product no. of your notebook so I can find the correct part no. for keyboard for your notebook.

You can also purchase single keys from below website if only those 3 keys are not working instead of buying a complete keyboard.

I hope this will help. Please revert for clarification.

i think the circuit under "G" key is not functioning due to short circuit.
i recommend to bring this to technician for repair or buy a new keyboard since this is cheaper.

It sounds like your keyboard may have bit the dust !
If you can get to a DOS Prompt or word pad to check, I will explain.
Start with going across all the top key's. If you find one that does not work, go directly below it and see if that key left to right works. If not your connection is corrupt and the keyboard should be replaced. Example: Type Y and U if the U does not work go below to the J and K, if they don't work, 1 or more of the integrated connections are bad and you will more that likely see at-least 8-10 more key's in that region that also don't work.
Keyboard for the DV1000 units can be purchased for $16.00 to $30.00 US. on (ebay)
Replacing the key board is not a bad job, but will require a little time.
Good luck.

P.S. DV1000 units are fairly old and you got your money's worth out of that one. !

you press just enough to hear it click. Light pressure... You will feel the difference when it snaps into place.

Are you looking for a CD/DVDd burner? Does the motherboard have damage to it? I apologize but you'll have to clarify a little for me.

All lights come on HP Pavilion dv1000 but will not boot. looked at motherboard and by power connector there is a blown part the number on the board shows PD27. I need to know what thhe part is or a schematic showing
