Laptop Wine Spill

[johnny crossan]

Spilt some white wine on my Toshiba NB305 last night, cleaned and dried it but this morning some of the keys are misfiring. Had a go with a hairdryer and another clean but still no go for backspace and delete keys.

Any suggestions?

You need to remove the keyboard and then yo can try to wash the wine out. It could work but most likely you will need to replace the keyboard.

edit: It's only one key now? You could try alcohol spray on it.

At least its clean now jc.
And cleanliness is next to godliness.

Thank you one and all for your advice and encouragement, looks like a new keyboard barring divine intervention.

It may not be dry yet.
Put it in the airing cupboard until tomorrow.
