Hey y'all
I have a problem with my keyboard. When I'm typing I notice that the 'E' & the 'T' don't respond or respond twice. Then I either don't get a letter or suddenly I get two. I've looked at the same problem on this forum but I couldn't find anything. I bought it at an online store. If I have to open the laptop myself I have no warranty anymore.
I've a MacBook Air 2018.
Thanks for the solutions. Take care!
MacBook Air 13", macOS 10.15

Hi LejonV,
Thanks for reaching out in Apple Support Communities. I understand you're having trouble with the E and T keys on your Mac either not responding or duplicating characters. I know it's important for your keyboard to work properly; I'd like to help. First, try resetting the SMC of your Mac and take some time to test for the behavior: How to reset the SMC of your Mac
If the issue persists, use these steps to start your Mac in safe mode and test again: How to use safe mode on your Mac. If the issue seems resolved in safe mode, restart your Mac normally and test for the behavior.
Let me know what you find.
Best Regards.
Hey!
Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately the problem still exists. I tried it all but my E & T are still not working properly. Do you have other tips or is the best solution to send it for repair?
