MacBook Pro caps lock light does not stay on

As per title. It is causing many issues, especially when entering passwords. I have been locked out of a couple of sites (including banking) as caps was on, but the light was not.


Could this be a hardware or software issue? I took into a store and they said it couldn't be a hardware issue, but I have had this issue since purchased (April 2023).

MacBook Pro (M3, 2023)

Before your warranty runs out:

You can make a Genius Bar appointment for hardware/software service and support using this link –

Contact Apple for support and service - Apple Support


Before you take it to Apple for service (because it's likely to get wiped):

Use Time Machine to back up - Apple Support


After you've backed up your Mac and before you take it in to Apple for warranty service:

How to reinstall macOS - Apple Support

Don't erase, format or otherwise alter your startup drive at this point. Simply select "Reinstall macOS..." after you have booted into Recovery.
