One key repeats itself. Another works only when pressed hard. The board disconnects when the cable moves. A freshly built hot-swap keyboard has two dead keys in the same corner. These problems feel random when you meet them at the desk, but most of them come from a short list of causes: contamination, a bent switch pin, a lifted socket, a bad cable, a firmware map that does not match the physical layout, or a solder joint that was never quite solid.</p>
