Try resetting the NVRAM and then retest. Instructions are in NVRAM Reset

iMac typing 6 randomly Hi every, 2014 i6Mac running with a wired keyboard I keep getting a random 6 appearing in the middle of my typing. At other times things just go crazy and it is like the 6 button is being held down and mac continuously beeps until I press the space button. Also noticed "question mark" is not working. Shift works with other keys and no problems with "/". Have tried resetting the keyboard back to standard but no luck. Any suggestions

My "almost new" iMac is making a clicking sound from time to time Does this indicate a problem? It seems random, and it even happens when I'm away from the computer and the screen saver is running. I wonder if I should return the computer--I've never heard this with any of my apple computers over the years! Any insights are appreciated! Thank you.

Weird - Screen Dimming While in Use and Ribbon Showing Recording? Weird -Ventura 13.2 mac pro, today screen started dimming several x while using to black, brought brighness up. Then ribbon showed something odd - red dot like recording, (wasn't) & apparent time notation and ‘167.47 gb’ and stop button, took snap. What the heck happened? Was NOT recording anything. Restarted immediately in case of malware and backing up - but mystified. Excuse messy keyboard!
