Navigating Keyboard Repair Challenges: Seeking Solutions for My Inspiron 5379

Hello Everyone,

I hope this message finds you well. I’m reaching out to share my experience with a recent keyboard repair mishap and to seek your advice on the next steps to take.

To give you a quick summary: I’ve been struggling with the keyboard on my Inspiron 5379 laptop. It’s been malfunctioning to the point where I’ve had to apply excessive pressure just to get it to respond, which is clearly not ideal. After searching for some guidance online, I attempted a DIY fix following a tutorial I found. However, in the process, I accidentally broke the latch that connects the keyboard ribbon, further complicating the situation.

Now, I’m left wondering if it’s possible to purchase a replacement latch for my model. As a student, I’m trying to manage my budget effectively, so I would prefer to avoid professional repair services that might charge a premium for what feels like a simple fix.

If anyone has insights on where I might find the latch or suggestions on how to remedy this situation, I would greatly appreciate your help.

Thank you for any guidance you can provide!

Best,

[Your Name]
