I have the same problem with keys B N M 'full stop' and the Del key on the keypad.

If you take off the caps then there's really no access to the switch mechanism itself to clean ?

Batteries should be okay but I will try replacing rechargeables with Alkaline and see if that makes a difference.

But why should only certain keys be affected ?

I have the same problem... There are certain keys that don't work. When taking off the keys there is no real access to clean anything. Trying to taking off the back of the keyboard so that I can clean the circuit board but even with all of the screws out some thing is stopping the back from popping off. Has anyone ever taken it off and tell me what is holding it on?

Once I take the keyboard apart, and brush off the 3 plastic layers underneath the keyboard, it works fine.
There are 14 screws on the back that you need to remove, a couple of them are hidden underneath warning / instruction stickers so you have to feel for them and cut the stickers off with a knife.

Same problem. I have fixed every time by removing back of board and cleaning the circuits with electronic cleaner. Not for everyone to try and it can void your warranty.

MY KEYBOARD WON'T LET CERTAIN KEYS WORK AND THE LETTERS AND NUMBERS ARE ALL MIXED UP. I HAVE THE RIGHT LANGUAGE. I HAVE TO USE MY ON SCREEN KEYBOARD.

WIRELESS\BLUETOOTH Check your battery if it is drained. Try replacing them witha new one or charge them if they are rechargables. Remove the Key caps and clean for dirts.
