❓ *Frequently Asked Questions:*
Question: Can I use any similar keyboard for Dell G7 7590 laptop?
Answer: No, you must use only a compatible keyboard. Choose the keyboard according to the laptop part number, or check the link I provided for a compatible keyboard with this laptop.

Question: What if my new keyboard still doesn't work?
Answer: Ensure all cables are securely connected. Test using the online keyboard checker linked below the video description.

Question: Do I need professional skills to perform this repair?
Answer: No, this guide is beginner-friendly and easy to follow.

Question: Will replacing the keyboard void my laptop’s warranty?
Answer: If your laptop is still under manufacturer warranty, opening the chassis and replacing internal parts can void that coverage. Check your warranty terms first before proceeding.

Question: How do I choose the correct keyboard layout (e.g., US, UK, ISO)?
Answer: Match the part number printed on the underside of your original keyboard or select the same language/layout in the replacement listing (US QWERTY, UK ISO, etc.) to ensure key size and legends are identical.

Question: How long does the entire replacement process take for a beginner?
Answer: Allow 30–40 minutes on a first attempt, including screw organization and careful cable handling. With practice you can cut that to 15 minutes.

Lol Dells quality sucks. I have the same laptop with keyboard issues. Can't believe a pretty expensive laptop becomes unusable after a year or so. Dell should recall these laptops. What a shame.

I have DELL G7 7588, when I plug in the AC cable adapter, the laptop power on automatically. I formatted the system partition and installed windows 10, check bios settings, everything you can imagine I did it, I changed also the battery and buy a new one but still the same issue. Last week I turned off the laptop from Windows 10, after ten seconds it starts by itself on battery or AC cable adapter plugged. I don’t know what to do. My laptop is out of warranty. is it a power button problem?
