It has happened to many people. You're working late, you're tired, and you’re clumsy. A cup of coffee by your hand gets knocked and suddenly there is a splash of liquid over your keyboard. This could spell disaster for your laptop if you don't know what to do.
Spills on laptop keyboards happen, and may only require laptop keyboard replacement if you're lucky. It may not even require that if you act quickly. The very first thing to do is to shut down the laptop. This is important for safety as well as the integrity of the computer. Liquids around any form of electronics are a bad idea, and it's sensible to remove electricity from the equation as soon as possible.
Once the power is off, turn the laptop upside down over some cloth. You should prevent further damage by ensuring that no liquid can drip down from the keyboard onto the screen. This can be done by bunching up a bit of cloth against the screen, but it is important to be gentle so as not to rub the liquid further into the computer.
Keyboards for laptops are extremely delicate, which is why they react so badly to even a small amount of liquid finding its way between the keys. Because of this, you should never try to wipe over the circuits on laptop keyboards immediately after a spill. If you have spilt a sticky substance over the keyboard, the prognosis is worse and will require a professional clean. When confronting this situation, contact us at Laptop Power UK. If only water has been spilt, there is a good chance that the keyboard will be fine after it dries.
