This laptop is maybe 6 or 7 years old? I'd go directly to eBay (or Dell
parts, maybe), although you might as well check the interior for a loose
cable anyway. The only loose cables I've ever found have been after
I've reassembled a laptop! Keyboards accumulate everything and sweat
and oils from the hands are solvent and glue that holds the entire mess
together. I'm amazed that kbs can take the abuse.
