How to Fix Laptop Spacebar Key HP Notebook keyboard Tutorial

This is a Video Tutorial / Guide that will show you how to repair spacebar key on a laptop. If you have a broken or removed mechanical spacebar keycap on your laptop, this video will help you replace or fix the key in a few minutes.

It is a little bit complicated as it has stabilizing bars like some other keys for example enter or backspace can also have a stabilizing bar.

This tutorial shows step by step how to reattach the space bar on a HP Pavilion g6 series (Hewlett Packard ). You can use the video to fix the other keys too as the plastic hinges are the same, just use the same method.

I really cannot thank you enough! I wanted to clean under my space bar because I could see that there was dirt underneath it, so I pulled out the space bar, cleaned it but when I tried to put it back together it wouldn’t work. It didn’t fit properly. I even used blue tack to help stick it back on, but then I decided to watch this video and now my space bar works again and is in its original form. Thank you💗

My spacebar is cracked into 3 pieces, the hinges and the brackets for them are broken, and the rubber cap in the middle has come off. My kids broke it. I'm waiting for a full hardware replacement at this point. Thanks to everyone who makes tutorials like these, I've been able to work with what I've got and keep my laptop functional (although awkwardly so) while my new laptop keyboard is in transit from Korea.
Sadly, I have yet to find a tutorial video on how to replace a slim LG gram type laptop's keyboard. It looks like I get to disassemble it completely to make it happen, since it needs to be accessed from the bottom.
