after water spill some keys (eg: ESC) is not working on my Insipiron laptop 1525
Accidently water was spilt over my laptop after which (try to dry it under fan for 1 day.) couple of keys are not working (eg: ESC, 'TAB'). It is already more than 30 days since this incident happened?
1. How to check which keys are working/not working - any software to do it?
2. How ot fix the keys with issues, will removing each key, cleaning and putting it back will help?
TIA

The Dell diagnostics (F12 at powerup) has a keyboard test, but it's likely the problem isn't with the keys themselves, but with the contacts on the circuit board below them. That means you'll almost certainly need a new keyboard.
