When my iPad mini 6 is connected to any bluetooth keyboard, some keys from the bluetooth keyboard won't suddenly work or it suddenly does ghost typing. I tried resetting my iPad mini 6, disconnecting the bluetooth keyboards and connecting them again, but none of them worked. Could anyone please help me, I am desperate.

Begin with a forced-restart of your iPad - as this will often clear an isolated software issue:
Force restart iPad (models with Face ID or with Touch ID in the top button)
If your iPad doesn’t have the Home button, do the following:
Force restart iPad (models with the Home button)
Press and hold the top button and the Home button at the same time. When the Apple logo appears, release both buttons.
If the problem persists after performing the restart, it may be necessary to reset your iPad settings. While this reset will not cause any loss of data, as a precaution, it is always wise to ensure that you have a current iCloud or iTunes backup before performing the reset:

When you are happy to proceed, you can perform the reset from iPad settings:
Settings > General > Transfer or Reset iPad > Reset > Reset All Settings
If the problem still doesn’t clear, the next step is to reset the iPad to factory settings:

Otherwise, you would be best advised to seek assistance directly from Apple Support. You can contact the Support Team using the Support link at top-right or bottom-left of this page. Alternatively and perhaps easier, you can initiate and manage your support cases using the excellent Apple Support App. If not already installed on your iPad, the App can be downloaded from the App Store:

You might also visit the Genius Bar at your local Apple Store or Apple Authorised Service Provider (AASP) - where the technicians will be able to test and assess your iPad - and you can explore your available options:
Perhaps your Bluetooth keyboard has fault. Try substituting for a different keyboard; if the problem is resolved, you have identified the cause of the problem.
As an alternative, try using the "suspect" keyboard with another device; if the problem transfers to the other device, you have again demonstrated the source of the problem.
Hello. Thank you for your response. I actually have 4 bluetooth keyboards, at first they were all working fine. And then some keys stopped working and started ghost typing. Do you have any other ideas what else can I do? I already reset my iPad, disconnected and connected the keyboards, turned off my iPad, pressed FN + B, and pressed Shitft + Alt/Option, but nothing worked.
