One key on your Lenovo IdeaPad isn’t working, or perhaps an entire row has stopped responding? The cause can be completely different depending on the scale of the problem. Repair usually takes 1–3 working days.
In short: a single non-working key on an IdeaPad is usually just dust that needs cleaning. An entire row or strip of keys stopping working is most often moisture. Thanks to the technology of desoldering just the keyboard and 3D printing, we replace only the keyboard, without needing to replace the entire IdeaPad topcase.
Our experience with Lenovo IdeaPad
We’ve replaced the keyboard in 2 Lenovo IdeaPad laptops. This is Lenovo’s budget and mid-range line — the most popular series for home and study use, where the keyboard works intensively in daily use.
IdeaPad — a keyboard that benefits from wide parts availability
IdeaPad is a very popular series, so replacement keyboards are widely available, which translates into efficient and predictable repair time. We don’t replace the entire topcase — thanks to the technology of desoldering just the keyboard and 3D-printed reinforcements, the repair works out much cheaper than replacing the entire upper housing.

Symptoms of a damaged keyboard
- A single key doesn’t respond or sticks
- An entire row or strip of keys stops working
- The keyboard types random or double characters
- Keys physically sink in or don’t return to position
Keyboards most often „die in strips” — if an entire row stops working at once, moisture is almost always to blame, not ordinary wear.

Frequently asked questions
One key doesn’t work on my IdeaPad — does this require replacement?
