My zero- and plus sign/questionmark-button not working. How do I know if its a software- or hardware issue

The zero- and plus sign/questionmark-buttons do not work. I cant tell how long it has been like this, because i'm helping with mothers computer.


Iv'e tried reseting PRAM and SMC several 2-3 times but it didn't help.


I've also updated to OS Catalina. But it also didn't help.


Whats the next thing to do


Regards

Hi,

Try to run Apple Diagnostics if it reports hardware related keyboard issue.

Use Apple Diagnostics to test your Mac – Apple Support (AU)

If it doesn't help, try to take your MacBook Air to your local retail AppleStore, Genius Bar or Apple Authorized Service Provider to be examined your MacBook Pro there.
