macbook pro M1 key requires little pressure to activate

The down arrow key on my M1 MacBook Pro 13 requires very little pressure to activate. Even when I lightly touch the key, it normally activates the key press which is very frustrating. Has anyone else had this issue and is there any way to fix it?


Thanks

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 13.2

Out of all the keys this is the only issue relative to all other key pressure..?
