Einleitung

Use this guide to aid in the removal and replacement of the keyboard to any HP Pavilion x360 14m-cd0005dx laptop. Replace the keyboard if the device fails to recognize a keypress. It should also be taken off and cleaned if, for some reason, a key cannot press down. For more information as to whether the keyboard should be replaced, look at this troubleshooting guide.

The keyboard is an essential part of any laptop. When replacing a keyboard, there may be some necessary software updates. Also, be aware that there are many wires to the keyboard; failing to replace a single cable can cause the keyboard to fail to work entirely. Neglecting the replacement of a keyboard may result in the system failing to recognize key inputs consistently.
